5.0 out of 5 stars beautiful book, Jun 11 2007
By Stan - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Poems 1923-1941 (Paperback)
Rakosi's an oft underappreciated member of the objectivist crew (along with Oppen, Zukofsky, and Reznikoff). This is the best introduction I've found to his work. One sample (unusual for him in that it's rhymey, but a good sampling of the pure power of his language):

Gigantic Walker

God, if I were up so high,

Where you wade across the sky

I'd scoop into your pool of blue,

And let the clear light trickle through.

Stoop, and lift me to your knees

Gigantic Walker of the Skies;

Lend me your sun and all your eyes

and I will make a poem of these.
