      Description:A reader-friendly anthology of influence--the geologic, historical, and personal history to supplement Lorine Niedecker's poem.
      Lake Superior is a compilation of writings around Lorine Niedecker''s poem of the same title—strata that inform the poem''s ecological and historical resonance.

      Lorine Niedecker was a major American poet often connected with the Objectivists. She lived in Wisconsin from 1903 to 1970.

      From "Lake Superior Country":
      Every bit of you is a bit of the earth . . .
      So—here we go. Maybe as rocks and I pass each other I could say how-do-you-do to an agate.


      "Niedecker [is] one of the most important and original poets of this past century."—August Kleinzahler, London Review of Books
