Edward Dahlberg: Look at this...

Vendor: NOVELISTS

Look at this poet William Carlos Williams: he is primitive and native, and his roots are in raw forest and violent places; he is word-sick and place-crazy. He admires strength, but for what? Violence! This is the cult of the frontier mind.

-- Edward Dahlberg, (Jul 22 1900-1977), US novelist, critic; He wrote Bottom Dogs, 1929.
