N2  - Statutes of Liberty (1993) was the first book on The New York School of Poets, and offered a definitive critical account of its key figures: John Ashbery, Frank O'Hara and James Schuyler. This second edition contains up to date material on the group and its growing influence on postmodern poetics. A new postscript focuses on the work of Ashbery, currently the most esteemed American poet since Wallace Stevens, and his profile output in the 1990s, including his 200 page epic poem Flow Chart
