Pulitzer Prize winning poet Karl Shapiro speaks directly of the modern American experience. His personal statements about his life and work are woven into this rich visualization of his poetry, interpreted through the collage animation of Faith Peel. Several poems demonstrate his belief that free verse is a natural and direct way of responding to the environment.
