About this audiobook
There are many ways to look at American poetry. Some critics say it leans too much on drama and sensation. Others trace it back to Whitman and his open welcome to the new world. Conrad Aiken surveys these views of the poetry of his own time and says what each leaves out.
This essay comes from Civilization in the United States, a 1922 collection edited by Harold Stearns. Read by Eleesha Lewis in thirty-three minutes.
