DICK: A MEMOIR OF DICK GALLUP
by Ron Padgett

One of America’s finest poets also turns out to be one of our premier memoirists. With his remarkably engaging trio of portraits, Ted, Joe and now perhaps his best, Dick, Padgett provides a master class about how to convey the complexities of friendship. Insightful, humorous, anecdotally rich and ruefully honest, its sense of fair play, without pulling any punches, is astonishing and enviable.
— Phillip Lopate

I read Dick with rapt fascination. It leaves me tongue-tied with respect.
— Peter Schjeldahl
