LONGER DESCRIPTION:

Richard Hugo was a major American poet, an influential and inspiring
teacher, and a master of the personal essay. Many of these essays have now
been assembled and arranged by Ripley Hugo, the poet's widow and a writer
and teacher, and by Lois and James Welch, writers and close friends of the
poet. Together the essays constitute a compelling autobiographical narrative
that takes the poet from his lonely childhood, through the war years and his
working and creative life, to an interview just before his untimely death in
1982. The introduction is by William Matthews, also a friend of Hugo's.

Richard Hugo, author of eight volumes of poetry, directed the University of
Montana's creative-writing program and edited the Yale Younger Poets Series.
Making Certain It Goes On: The Collected Poems was published in 1984. Ripley
Hugo lives in Missoula, Montana, as do the Welches.
