Description
Sour Grapes: A Book of Poems
By William Carlos Williams
Narrated by Ron Altman
William Carlos Williams (1883-1963) was one of the most prominent members of the Imagist movement, a brief flowering of modernist poetry, in which Ezra Pound was also involved. Williams was also an accomplished painter and art critic.
Imagist verse is characterized by a distinct economy of verbiage and freedom of rhythm.
Sour Grapes was his fourth collection of poetry and was published in 1921. As with much of Williams' early works, critical acclaim was slow in coming. Today, the collection is considered to contain some of his most significant poems.
