   Extractions: Hardcover $22.00 96pp Charles Simic is one of the few poets who has rocked the world of poetry this century. In 1990, his book, The World Doesn't End (Harcourt Brace) won the Pulitzer Prize for poetry. What seemed so shocking at the time is that it was the first book (and only book) of prose poetry to win this prestigious award. Mr. Simic has published over 60 books, was the guest editor for The Best American Poetry 1992 , and was awarded a MacArthur Fellowship in 1984. During a telephone interview with Mr Simic, I asked him what he thought about all of his achievements. "I don't think about it. I suppose I would be considered a success because I have published a lot of books. All these books don't give me confidence because I always have to write the next poem. You don't say to yourself that since you published all these books not to worry about it. I do worry about it. Success is ok for five minutes." The Pulitzer is one of the three coveted prizes for poets, with the National Book Critics Circle Award and the National Book Award being the other two. Winning even one of these could be considered the crowning achievement of any poet's life. I asked Mr. Simic how he felt when he won the Pulitzer in 1990. "Well there was surprise, it was a shocking surprise and I didn't mind. I had hopes for other books in the past which I had thought would be candidates. I didn't think this book would do anything much. Some people were very upset and wrote that this wasn't poetry."

Hotel Insomnia and Dimestore Alchemy: The Art of Joseph Cornell (both 1992) clearly affirm Simic's reputation as street-wise visionary and learned prankster. Indeed, if these two latest books share anything with Simic's previous work, it's that their materials (the images, the people, the plots) have a quirky immediacy about them, a comfortable here-and-nowness; and that in this daylight clutter and ordinariness, he consistently finds subtle and wide-ranging resonance. Poetry is everywhere, Simic shows us once again; "the question," according to Thoreau, "is not what you look at, but what you see."

He was speaking of Kafka's feel for the boundaries of the human and the divine. Tadic has the same feel. He composes anti-poems, anti-psalms, anti-prayers. Such complexity in poems that are almost exclusively very short! In my view, he is one of the most original and interesting poets today." Charles Simic paper $14.95

Walking the Black Cat (poems), by Charles Simic (Harcourt Brace, 1996). Paper, $13. My first poems were published in the winter of 1959 issue of Chicago Review , but other publications came slowly after that; the mail brought me rejection slips every day. One, I remember, had a personal note from the editor that said: "Dear Mr. Simic, you're obviously an intelligent young man, so why do you waste your time writing so much about pigs and cockroaches? Charles Simic, in an essay called "New York Days, 1958-1964" UNLIKE MANY OF his contemporaries, Charles Simic, who went from the Chicago Review to a Pulitzer Prize in 1990 for his collection of poems The World Doesn't End , has continued to play to his strengths. "The folk surrealism, the mysticism, the eroticism, and the wild flights of romance and rhetoric," he's called it, referring to the French and German modernists who discovered in the rise of behavioral science new ways to mix the subconscious, the visionary, and the strange into the foundation of creative work. Simic was in Manhattan when this epiphany hit him, decades ago, listening to early bebop jazz in the back room of a nightclub. Having been run around in circles by his friends back in Chicago, accused of writing poems that were nothing more than "crazy images strung arbitrarily together," or worse, poems that "don't mean anything," Simic was amazed to hear so clearly stated in the melodies of American jazz something he'd been struggling to understand about how his poetry
