Description

Explore the often-overlooked poetic legacy of Raymond Carver with Sandra Lee Kleppe's comprehensive study that reframes the acclaimed short story writer as an equally committed poet. This Routledge analysis combines comparative literary examination with in-depth textual study to demonstrate the artistic merit of Carver's poetry collections and reveal how his pursuit of verse fundamentally shaped his entire writing career. Kleppe introduces the concept of 'autopoetics' - Carver's self-constructed organic literary system that reflects a paradigm shift in understanding how biography and creative expression interconnect. For scholars, students, and Carver enthusiasts, this book provides essential critical perspective on one of twentieth-century literature's most significant voices, showing that his contributions to poetry deserve equal recognition alongside his celebrated short fiction.

Key Features

Introduces the critical concept of 'autopoetics' to explain how Carver's organic literary system shaped his artistic development.

Published by Routledge, a leading academic publisher specialising in literary criticism and cultural studies.
