Rexroth, Kenneth, to Deutsch, Babette, 1954 May 25
Item — Box: 1, Folder: 15
Autographed letter signed, 2 pages. San Francisco. He has reviewed her book for the Herald Tribune [Animal, vegetable, mineral, Dutton, 1954]. Commends its “depth of beauty and wisdom...” Louise Bogan has “...the unmistakable accent... gripping is the word.” Thinks little of Leonie Adams work: “managing only to be cranky when experimental.” He is not applying for a grant renewal: “I don't like asking people for such letters at all.”
