"""Frank O'Hara: The Poetics of Coterie is an outstanding study of a remarkable, underrated poet and critic. Combining incisive reading of specific poems and critical pieces with astute insistence on more general theoretical issues involving historical context and rhetorical positioning, Shaw calls into question not only previous---often trivializing---evaluations of O'Hara and his work but also revises crucial mid-twentieth-century literary and artistic concepts like that of 'coterie' itself.""---Linda Nochlin, Wallace Professor of Modern Art, New York University Institute of Fine Arts"
