Reviews
"Stay put long enough to read this book! Amy Clampitt was a quirky, bookish, intoxicated, and radiant spirit, and Willard Spiegelman has captured her bright light in this delightfully offbeat, critical, erudite, and ardent biography." --Edward Hirsch, author of Stranger by Night "From the bright strands of Amy Clampitt's extraordinary life and poems--plus letters, diaries, and extensive interviews--Willard Spiegelman has woven a gorgeous tapestry of a book, and the authoritative account of one of our most beloved poets. Some biographies pin their subjects to the page like stiff butterflies, but Nothing Stays Put brings us Clampitt in all her brilliance: vivid, restless, and alive." --Patrick Phillips, author of Song of the Closing Doors "With tenderness and a sense of wonder, Willard Spiegelman recreates the improbable life of the poet Amy Clampitt. We watch the Iowa farm girl make her way to New York City and live for years in bohemian obscurity before blazing into public view at age sixty-three with her radiantly original first book of poems, The Kingfisher . As Spiegelman feels his way into the mysterious development of Clampitt's art, he invites us to consider, as well, 'the ungraspable mystery at the heart of all selfhood.' A work of devoted, delicate, and impeccable scholarship." --Rosanna Warren, author of Max Jacob: A Life in Art and Letters "Amy Clampitt admired the lush intensities of John Keats and Hart Crane. Yet her life was nothing like theirs. Or was it? Maybe the soaring creativity that came to her late in life is another version of their early kind. With authority, sympathy, and aplomb, Willard Spiegelman brings Clampitt's poetry back into view, while managing gaps and mysteries in the record to fit together the story of political and spiritual searching from which her artistry grew." --Langdon Hammer, author of James Merrill: Life and Art "When 63 year-old Amy Clampitt 'came glancing like an arrow' onto the American scene in 1983, 'the color of felicity afire,' her distinctive art deranged the status quo the way genuine poetry always does, sparking ardor along with umbrage, a decade-long run of laurels as well as brickbats. Just how are we to account for this self-taught 'next-to-unidentifiable wildling'? What could have led to this unlikely unforeseen late-in-life efflorescence? At last, Willard Spiegelman is on the case. Discerning and relishing in equal measure, Nothing Stays Put helps us to see this 'lone, poised, hovering rarity' more keenly and value her poems anew: a true literary event. (And may a rediscovered Amy Clampitt once again resuscitate and defibrillate our American poetry!)" --Atsuro Riley, author of Heard-Hoard, "With tenderness and a sense of wonder, Willard Spiegelman recreates the improbable life of the poet Amy Clampitt. We watch the Iowa farm girl make her way to New York City and live for years in bohemian obscurity before blazing into public view at age sixty-three with her radiantly original first book of poems, The Kingfisher . As Spiegelman feels his way into the mysterious development of Clampitt's art, he invites us to consider, as well, 'the ungraspable mystery at the heart of all selfhood.' A work of devoted, delicate, and impeccable scholarship." --Rosanna Warren, author of Max Jacob: A Life in Art and Letters

Synopsis
A NEW YORKER BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR - LONGLISTED FOR THE 2024 PLUTARCH AWARD - An evocative portrait of the beloved and acclaimed poet, whose late-in-life success took the literary world by storm. "Clampitt comes to life here...Spiegelman's Nothing Stays Put embodies a different kind of investigation, not surveillance but a thoughtful examination that at times still spins off into a kind of awe." -- The Washington Post With the publication of her first book of poems in her sixty-third year, Amy Clampitt rose meteorically to fame, launching herself from obscurity to the upper ranks of American poetry all but overnight, and living a whirlwind eleven years, until her death in 1994. Years later, as renowned poetry scholar Willard Spiegelman wades into her papers and poems, he discovers a woman of dazzling intellect, staunch progressive politics, and an inexhaustible sense of wonder for the world and the words we've invented to describe it. Giving equal weight to the life and the poetry, Spiegelman untangles Clampitt's famously allusive lines to reveal the experiences they emerged from, pulling the curtain back on her nearly four decades of artistic anonymity, and in doing so assembling a rich period piece of Manhattan during the days in which Clampitt worked for Oxford University Press and the National Audubon Society--writing cheery, discursive office memos, and two novels that never got published, before hitting her stride in verse. Nothing Stays Put is a gift to poetry fans, an inspiration to artists striving at any age, and an ode to this most unlikely of literary celebrities, who would publish five acclaimed books and win a MacArthur "Genius Grant" nearly all in the final decade of her life., A NEW YORKER BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR .
