New and collected poems, 1961-1983 / Alan Dugan. - 1st ed. - New York, N.Y. : Ecco Press , 1983. - 309 p. ; 22 cm. - The American poetry series ; v. 29 .
The Saturday Review said of Poems (1961), the first volume by the native New Yorker Alan Dugan: "His poetry is a special way of looking at things. . . . Through personal experience of war he shapes universal messages, while he takes history, religion, and mythology and gives them an intimate meaning." This book won the National Book Award and the Pulitzer Prize in 1962, and in the same year the poet won a fellowship in literature at the American Academy in Rome. The New York Times found that in Poems 2 (1963), Dugan reveals "a sharp eye for the sights and sounds of New York." In Poems 3, Dugan "writes with an anger at society that moves from artless outcry to black resignation in the face of the world's evils, and back again" (Saturday Review). Alan Dugan's first book, "Poems" was chosen for the Yale Series of Younger Poets & won its grand prize. Each subsequent book has been simply titled in sequence: the current collection bringing us to "Poems Seven". He has won the National Book Award, the Pulitzer Prize, the Prix de Rome & an award in literature form the American Academy & the Institute of Arts & Letters. He has been a fellow of the National Academy in Rome, the recipient of two Guggenheim Foundation fellowships & a grant form the Rockefeller Foundation. Since 1969, the author has been affiliated with the Provincetown Fine Arts Work Center in Provincetown & lives with his wife in Truro, Mass.
Winner, National Book Award and the Pulitzer Prize, 1962
