Review of Untermeyer Poetry Book Intelligent Mediocrity
Hortense Calisher notes Intelligent Mediocrity by Louis Untermeyer as difficult to appraise. She questions the poet’s maturity and highlights the title poem Food and Drink with earthy culinary imagery and innuendo about poets. The collection’s other poems are calmer and rural, with one piece Yes and No praised for its dreamy power.
