Trade Review
The Riding-Stein correspondence will be compelling reading for all who are interested in modernism."—Bob Perelman, author of The Marginalization of Poetry: Language Writing and Literary History "This three-year correspondence sheds a brilliant new light on what is arguably one of the most intensely productive periods in both Riding's and Stein's careers."—Jennifer Ashton, editor of The Cambridge Companion to American Poetry since 1945
