How To Become A Poet Today (Pascal Editions: SIngle Folio Series Book 1)

How To Be A Poet Today is marxist literary criticism as its most incisive and most arch.

New York literati Rachel Rabinovitch undertakes a close sociological analysis of the social circumstances underlying poetic publication and reputation today, and unmasks the real circumstances that shape careers and stature in the closed ivory tower world of modern literature.

Cynics will delight in this short sharp text, poet laureates will be enraged, students and teachers of marxist literary theory will be much amused, and aspiring poets will learn the Machiavellian lessons needed to make the grade in the brave new literary-academic world.
