Biographie d'Alicia Zukofsky
"Alicia Zukofsky's erudition is remarkable. Her knowledge of the world amazing. Her emotional intensity confirms Pound's dictum that the quality of a poem depends to a large degree on the strength of the emotion that it makes felt.
Alone, so often, in her small room at the outskirts of the city, Alicia Zukofsky is hesitant when asked about her life experience. She chose to leave the place where she lived and worked for so long, in 2005, opting for exile.
Her memories are bitter but her optimism is unbroken.
She says that writers have a task, a burden: To see things clearly, and to warn."
- Karen Wittstock, New York-based literary critic
