Rexroth, A great Teacher in San Francisco

I am amazed whe I go into a bookstore in San Francisco and find that they don't carry any of Kenneth Rexroth' many books. For many of us that lived in San Francisco during his life he was the teacher. Very few creative artists have been as generous in praising other artists. His poetry has it's own flavor. Particularly touching are the series written over many years about his first wife Andree. Go to the library!read him!
