To Jack Spicer he was a myth and a god. To Robert Duncan he was the Poet King. John Ashbery admired his poetry in New York in the early 1950s, and published selections in Locus Solus in 1962 (Everson's last appearance in print until now!). In 1960 Everson participated in a pivotal three-poet weekly Sunday poetry group with Spicer and Blaser in San Francisco. While Spicer was writing Homage to Creeley, Everson was composing Postcard from Eden and The Little Ghosts I Played With, two great sequences which now appear in print for the first time in Fulcrum 3, in The Berkeley Renaissance, edited by Ben Mazer. Fulcrum is proud to present Landis Everson's first public and print appearances in over forty years. William Corbett teaches in MIT's Program of Writing and Humanistic Studies. He is an editor of Pressed Wafer. His most recent book, All Prose, was published by Zoland Books. Peter Gizzi's new book is Some Values of Landscape and Weather (Wesleyan 2003). He is the editor of The House That Jack Built: The Collected Lectures of Jack Spicer (Wesleyan, 1998). John Hennessy's poems have recently appeared or are forthcoming in Fulcrum, The Sewanee Review, Salt, The Yale Review, LIT, and Ontario Review. He teaches at UMass Amherst. Katia Kapovich's collection of English language poetry is Gogol in Rome (Salt, 2004). She is also a well-known Russian poet. Mark Lamoureux's chapbooks are CITY/TEMPLE (Ugly Ducking Presse, 2003) and 29 CHEESEBURGERS (Pressed Wafer, 2004). Glyn Maxwell, born in Hertfordshire, England, now lives in NY City. His several books of poetry include The Breakage and The Nerve (both Houghton Mifflin). He is the poetry editor of The New Republic and teaches at Princeton and Columbia.
