Nothing/Doing: Selected Poems (New Directions Paperbook)
Corman is one of modernisms enduring masters, a poet of prodigious talent and production whose work, both as poet and publisher, is intertwined with the Objectivists Louis Zukofsky and George Oppen, as well as the Black Mountain poets Robert Creeley and Charles Olson. Among such modern giants, Cormans verse is perhaps the most refined, refusing the temptation of effect for the tactile ink of line and touch. Nothing/Doing presents a vital poetry of zen koan and cognitive conundrum, but also one of uncompromising wisdom, where Corman can definitively declare: Theres only/one poem: / this is it.
