>I'm trying to locate a copy, at reasonable cost, of "Poems and problems"
and "Poems" (1959). (I've tried Amazon and Alibris, but no luck). Can
anyone explain, A) where I might look; and, B) how it is that, given the
increasing popularity of our hero, his published poetry has been allowed
to reside in relative obscurity? Please don't answer, as some have
elsewhere, that verse was not his strong suit, as even a cursory glance
at
his poems shows this is not the case. Also, this may be a naive
question
but whatever happened to "Lectures on Ulysses"? Thanks.<
