After the appearance of his first book (by the same name), he was inundated with praise. The famed poet Allen Tate wrote to him, \"Your poetic style is beyond any doubt the first real innovation that we've had since Eliot and Pound,\" and T. S. Eliot himself wrote Schwartz a letter asking him to compose more poetry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe brilliant start of his career is matched perhaps only by its tragic end, a lonely death after an extended period of alcoholism, depression, and derangement. Today, more than fifty years after his death in 1966, Schwartz is often remembered for the tragedy of his life rather than for the innovation and sad brilliance of his greatest work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis book brings together all of Schwartz's poetry for the very first time, from his groundbreaking debut collection to his unpublished late work, which he kept writing until his death.
