Bill Berkson (1939-2016) was a poet, critic, teacher, and occasional curator, active in the art and literary worlds of New York and the San Francisco Bay Area for six decades. He published some twenty volumes of poetry, including Portrait and Dream- New & Selected Poems in 2009 and Expect Delays in 2014.
Inventive and idiosyncratic, it's a sublimely apt ode to O'Hara, as
well as to the poetry and art scenes of 60s New York.—The
Guardian
For those who love O'Hara's work, it should be an essential volume
in their library.—Gay and Lesbian Review
A Frank O'Hara Notebook makes a fabulous gift for anyone who knew
Berkson's writings, as well as a marvelous inheritance to younger
readers who have maybe never read them, for they offer a suggestive
model of how to think about writing and the life of the art
writer.—Hyperallergic
For fans of Berkson and/or O'Hara, and for anyone interested in the
intersection of painting and poetry, this book is indispensable.
The book is a masterpiece of design and production.—The Rumpus
