Title
Portrait of an Artist as a Young Poseur - Boston 1974 to 1983 - Paperback
by Doug Holder (Author)
"Doug Holder is a poet of the old city, the city of our fathers, of the 1950s and later. Mr. Holder writes poems like notes in a diary. I found myself struck by their economy, wit, and urban melancholy... He has a voice unlike that of any of his contemporaries. Holder is a poet of the street and coffeehouses, an observer of the everyday. He writes of old Marxists, security guards and his relationship to his deceased father-themes of the common life. I am drawn to these poems as I am to the poetry of Philip Levine and the prose of James T. Farrell. But Holder's poetry is deeper than that. He sees the world not for what it is, but on his own terms. He is living in the poem rather than in poetry." Sam Cornish, First Boston Poet Laureate
