...Affection has a survival instinct. But since Dylan blew away all of my expectations, I will have to amend my initial characterization of his music. It's not mere affection, but I would hate to use the word "love". More accurately, it's a sense of deep appreciation that I was lucky enough to see him before he kicked...
...paper down the toilet, that I suddenly remembered those pages. I have never read through those words, because a psycho stole them and absconded with them to Australia. At the time, I was distraught. There was every proof of all the people with whom I had ever shared any love--gone in a single tasteless move. But today, I think: Wastepaper.

He fell in love (and in hate) with the poem or book under review, bringing it alive even as he anatomized it. These essays, selected by Brad Leithauser, open the reader to the Morgan Library of Jarrell's mind, ablaze with a sensible passion and aphoristic wit. "The people who live in a Golden Age," he wrote, "usually go around complaining how yellow everything looks." When Jarrell died in 1965, criticism...
