This final stanza of "Waking Early Sunday Morning" exemplifies the dark themes of Robert Lowell's new book. This long opening poem is the first of a sequence of five poems that continues with "Fourth of July in Main," "The Opposite House," "Central Park," and "Near the Ocean." This sequence is followed by two short poems, "1958" and "For Theodore Roethke." ***Mr. (Sidney) Nolan, the distinguished Australian painter, has made twenty-one drawings for this book.' (Quote taken from the publisher's blurb on the front and rear flaps.) ***'Robert Traill Spence Lowell IV (Mar 01 1917 - Sep 12 1977) was an American poet. He was born into a Boston Brahmin family that could trace its origins back to the Mayflower. His family, past and present, were important subjects in his poetry. Growing up in Boston also informed his poems, which were frequently set in Boston and the New England region. The literary scholar Paula Hayes believes that Lowell mythologized New England, particularly in his early work. Lowell stated, "The poets who most directly influenced me --- were Allen Tate, Elizabeth Bishop, and William Carlos Williams. An unlikely combination! --- but you can see that Bishop is a sort of bridge between Tate's formalism and Williams's informal art." Lowell wrote in both formal, metered verse as well as free verse; his verse in some poems from "Life Studies" and "Notebook" fell somewhere in between metered and free verse. After the publication of his 1959 book "Life Studies", which won the 1960 National Book Award and "featured a new emphasis on intense, uninhibited discussion of personal, family, and psychological struggles," he was considered an important part of the confessional poetry movement. However, much of Lowell's work, which often combined the public with the personal, did not conform to a typical "confessional poetry" model. Instead, Lowell worked in a number of distinctive stylistic modes and forms over the course of his career.'
