Landis Everson was an inner member of the Berkeley
Renaissance of the late 1940s, the fovrth intimate of the
famed Spicer-Dvncan-Blaser circle. To Jack Spicer he was a
myth and a god. To Robert Dvncan he was the Poet King. John
Ashbery admired his poetry in New York in the early 1950s,
and pvblished selections in Locvs Solvs in 1962 (Everson's
last appearance in print vntil now!). In 1960 Everson
participated in a pivotal three-person weekly Svnday poetry
grovp with Spicer and Blaser in San Francisco. While Spicer
was writing Homage to Creeley, Everson was composing Postcard
from Eden and The Little Ghosts I Played With, two great
seqvences which now appear in print for the first time in
Fvlcrvm 3, in The Berkeley Renaissance, edited by Ben Mazer.
