"In organizing a mass of previously unavailable archive material, Jarnot's study will serve as an indispensable reference text--if not the first port of call--for anyone hoping to make headway through the metaphysical tangle of Duncan's oeuvre. . . .

Readers of Jarnot's biography will find Duncan's life realized, at last, in all its fictive certainty., Lisa Jarnot's biography of Duncan should only stoke further interest in his work. She avoids the usual two pitfalls--worship and apostasy--by cleaving to a style so clean and free of editorializing or psychologizing that it reads like reportage. . . . The result is a book of just the facts: what, where, when and who. And yet Jarnot, a poet herself, is sensitive to the symbols and cycles that defined Duncan's imaginative life., "A chronicle that should be utterly absorbing for anyone interested in twentieth-century American poetry."-- Booklist, Jarnot's biography offers an eloquent testament to an American poet trying to be responsible to the human spirit. . . .

Synopsis
This definitive biography gives a brilliant account of the life and art of Robert Duncan (1919-1988), one of America's great postwar poets. Lisa Jarnot takes us from Duncan's birth in Oakland, California, through his childhood in an eccentrically Theosophist household, to his life in San Francisco as an openly gay man who became an inspirational figure for the many poets and painters who gathered around him. Weaving together quotations from Duncan's notebooks and interviews with those who knew him, Jarnot vividly describes his life on the West Coast and in New York City and his encounters with luminaries such as Henry Miller, Anaïs Nin, Tennessee Williams, James Baldwin, Paul Goodman, Michael McClure, H.D., William Carlos Williams, Denise Levertov, Robert Creeley, and Charles Olson., This definitive biography gives a brilliant account of the life and art of Robert Duncan (1919-1988), one of America's great postwar poets.
