Books by Alexander Coleman

Through careful reading of Luis Cernuda's later poetry, written after 1936, Alexander Coleman argues that Luis Cernuda was a poet whose primary impulse in his art was the suppression of the subjective and the consequent objectivization of poetry.

Contains nearly all the criticism that Alexander Coleman wrote for "The New Criterion" between 1994 and 2003. The contents include: literary essays; concert and book reviews, and reports on the cultural situation of music; and travel writings, which are both evocative mood pieces and incisive social and political commentary.
