… Anecdotal Evidence: `Good Night Marcus Put Out the Light'.

In the Spring 1963 issue of The Hudson Review you’ll find Theodore Roethke (who died later that year) and Robert Bly, John Simon (still with us), the late lamented Hilton Kramer almost two decades before he founded The New Criterion, and a review of One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich by Sidney Monas. Most interesting are what must be among the earliesttranslations into English of Zbigniew Herbert’s poems, by Peter Dale Scott.
