Anne Waldman compte parmi les voix les plus intéressantes, vibrantes et imprévisibles de la poésie post-Beat. Son œuvre fusionne de manière impressionnante préoccupations bouddhistes et voies de pensée avec des sources de physicalité et de colère. Elle livrait des lectures exubérantes et très physiques de sa propre poésie. Waldman faisait partie de la scène poétique de l'East Village à la fin des années 60 et a cofondé une école de poésie.

In Bard, Kinetic, Anne Waldman assembles a layered compendium of essays, letters, poems, and interviews that form a panoramic portrait of her life and praxis as a groundbreaking poet.

She recalls founding the Poetry Project at St. Mark's Church and later the Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics at Naropa University and discusses her political and artistic philosophy thatguides her activities as writer, activist, performer, instigator, and Buddhist practitioner.
