Robert Lowell’s Memoirs, which Prof. Grzegorz Kosc, ASC Director, has coedited with Prof. Steven Gould Axelrod from the University of California, Riverside, will be released next week by renowned New York publisher Farrar, Straus and Giroux, and in London by Faber and Faber. It is a collection of largely unpublished autobiographical prose by Robert Lowell (1917-1977), the precursor of confessionalism in American poetry. The book is now being reviewed by major American and British newspapers and weeklies—New York Times, Guardian, Literary Hub, and many others.
