  • Beschreibung: This volume is about the type of work that poets perform and why it matters. Challenging the divide between inspired poetic production and other apparently lesser and contingent forms of labour, this book considers the poetry of Walt Whitman (a real estate dealer), Herman Melville (customs inspector) and Hart Crane (copywriter).
