The main feature of this issue is a celebration of poet Marianne Moore with articles and poems by Stanley Kunitz, James Dickey, Kay Boyle, Jean Gould, David Amram and others. The recording is of Marianne Moore reading two of her poems, along with two songs by Moore, one of them composed by Virgil Thomson and the other by Ned Rorem. There is also an article, "Berthe Morisot and the Poets", illustrated in color, by Suzanne G. Lindsay. Very good .
