The Maximus Poems is one of the high achievements of twentieth-century American letters and an essential poem in the postmodern canon. It stands out, in Hayden Carruth's words, as "a huge and truly angelic effort," matching the dimensions of its hero's name and returning poetry to its Homeric and Hesiodic scope. This complete edition of The Maximus Poems brings together the three volumes of Charles Olson's long poem (originally published in 1960, 1968, and 1975, and long out of print) in an authoritative version edited according to the highest standards of textual criticism. Errors in the previous editions have been corrected, twenty-nine new poems added, and the sequence of the final poems modified in the light of the editor's research among the poet's papers. --University of California Press.

Literary Nonfiction. Memoir. Charles Boer offers less a work of literary criticism or traditional biography than a portrait of one of the 20th century's most influential writers from a friend and student's point of view. Boer's choice to write in the second person, as if to Olson, himself, lends the work a quality of intimacy. This stands as one of the vital books for those with an interest in the study of Charles Olson, full of direct quotations which shed light on aspects of Olson's character, his scholarly work and his poetry.
