After nearly three years in New York, living alone ("I didn't even have enough money to take out a girl"), he moved back to his family's farm in Minnesota, and has been in the neighborhood of it ever since. His first book, Silence in the Snowy Fields, collected a group of poems as muffed as a snowstorm in midwinter. They were like quiet songs, spoken out of solitude, poems in which A Man Writes to a Part of Himself. Even then, a nervous aura of crisis crept into his work...
None of the forgotten Americans at Howard Johnson's would adopt me-not even the one at whom I flashed my Harvard I.D. Everybody's car was "too crowded." Eventually I won the trust of four cheerleaders, in bright blue uniforms, from the University of Buffalo. They had cheered their boys to victory over B.C. that very afternoon...

Boorstin has mounted a production of main stage importance. even if it might have been more at home in the more intimate surroundings of the Experimental Theatre. Nonetheless, the result is solid evidence that the invidious distinction that has often existed between the two Loeb stages is absurd...
