Paul Celan to Ingeborg Bachmann, October 30, 1951 (tr. from German by Wieland Hoban):
Philip Guston:
William Meredith:
Chase Twichell:
Yoko Ono:
James Ensor, The Intrigue, Oil on canvas, 1890
Meredith and Twichell are both very nice, thank you. And the whole “mask” conceit for this 29th of October is apropos!
Sent me out to buy a book of Meredith, and look for Twitchell who is yet another new to me poet. Thanks, Sean.
