Bert Meyers: On the Life and Work of an American Master
Edited by Dana Levin and Adele Elise Williams, the Meyers project was, among other things, a labor of love, not only for Levin and Williams, each of whom in their own way regard the poet, who died in 1979, as their teacher and mentor, but also for Daniel Meyers, the poet’s son. Daniel’s efforts to ensure his father’s legacy culminated in the publication of In a Dybbuk’s Raincoat: Collected Poems (University of New Mexico Press, 2007)—a handsome, impeccable volume that did not impact the poetry world as it should have and is now, tragically, out-of-print.
