Journal Article
Politics by Parable: Denise Levertov and the Gulf War
2009
Overview
Goldstein examines the poems of Denise Levertov. Levertov has the reputation of being a didactic poet who wrote angrily and often about the \"leaden burden of human evil\" endured by people of good will in the modern era. Her poems denouncing the Vietnam War are justly famous and controversial. Levertov did not change her poetics to suit her critics, not for a while. By and large, she continued to believe that \"There is no reason why a poetry of political and social engagement can't be as good as any other poetry.\"
