This study recreates the discourse about poetry, spoken and unspoken, that lives in the letters of Williams and Roethke. The letters are arranged in sequence, with all of the complicated assessments, the insights, the blunders, and the innuendoes left in. Williams held an intricate, demanding standard for RoethkeOs work, and he was not above offering a few of his own controversial beliefs as part of the exchange.
