I will always be grateful for discovering that used volume of Naked Poetry in 1980 or so: my first exposure to poets such as Berryman, Lowell, Merwin, Levertov, Levine, Plath, and Creeley. In some ways, this book, and the possibilities it presented, saved a young teen from an even deeper plunge into self-destruction. One of my great joys as editor of Pedestal was to interview Robert Mezey, thanking him and Stephen Berg for their work with this volume (which, incidentally, wasnt as great for them as it was for me; apparently many people felt left out, offended, etc.).
