Michael O'Brien (born January 29, 1939) is an American poet. He began his poetry career as part of the "Eventorium", a relatively obscure group of New York artists with an interest in surrealism. O’Brien’s early work is now extremely difficult to find, according to a 2007 review of his ''Sleeping and Waking'' by David Orr in ''The New York Times''.〔(Review by David Orr ) in ''The New York Times'' On Poetry: Words of the World"], New York Times Book Review, December 9, 2007, accessed April 17, 2008〕 His book, ''Sleeping and Waking'' was a finalist for the 2007 National Book Critics Circle award.〔("National Book Critics Circle Announces Awards Finalists" ), news release from the National Book Critics Circle, January 12, 2008, accessed April 17, 2008〕 According to Orr, poetry critic of ''The New York Times'', the poems in the collection are "heavy on isolated images, dream logic, bits of overheard conversation (typically urban conversation) and memories, with larger themes emerging through juxtapositions and repetitions. Indeed, many poems consist of nothing but juxtapositions and repetitions."〔 ==Works== * ''Sleeping and Waking'' Flood Editions, 2007 * ''Sills: Selected Poems'', Zoland, 2000 * ''At Schoodic'', Cairn Editions, 2000 * ''The Ruin'', an assortment of translations, 1986 * ''The Summer Poems'', Eventorium Pres, 1967 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Michael O'Brien (American poet)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
