Poet Mark Ford has described the letters of James Schuyler as "witty, graceful, sophisticated, and gossipy." Particularly poignant are these Schuyler letters to fellow poet Frank O'Hara. Entertaining and transcendently poetic, they are the portrait of a friendship between two great New York School poets.

James Schuyler(1923-1991) was the recipient of the 1981 Pulitzer Prize in Poetry for The Morning of the Poem. He belonged to the first generation of New York poets, along with Kenneth Koch, John Ashbery, Frank O'Hara, and Barbara Guest. He wrote three novels, including one with John Ashbery.
William Corbett(1942-2018) was a poet, educator, editor, and publisher who lived in Boston and New York.
