This community is dedicated to the discussion, exploration, explication, celebration, and appreciation of the works and life of American poet Wallace Stevens (1879-1955).
This info section is still in progress. I'll include some links to Stevens resources on the web, as well as a selection of important quotations from Stevens's writings. I'll probably also add a bibliography of books by and about Stevens. I'm open to suggestions for what to include in any of these sections.
I'll also continue to add more interests; as you can tell, I'm trying to be somewhat playful with them. Let me know if you have any ideas.
