Remembering Jack Gilbert
A few days after Jack Gilbert‘s passing on 13 November 2012, the editors of Tongue invited a number of poets to reflect on Gilbert’s life and work. For just over a week, we posted this beautiful series of short essays, celebrations, and remembrances to Marginalia, our Tumblr.
