Arnzen "In October last year, Hippocampus Press released The Last Oblivion: Best Fantastic Poems of Clark Ashton Smith. If you haven't read Smith's poetry, this is a great introductory book to own and study" Contemporary Reviews of The Star-Treader and Other Poems Edited and Annotated by Scott Connors "Clark Ashton Smith, the Auburn boy for whom puberty and poetry were simultaneous phenomena, has attained to the dignity of book covers." Clark Ashton Smith - Ill-fated Master of Fantasy By Hal Rubin "A kinder fate would have shown dark Ashton Smith the light of day in medieval France instead of late 19th-century Auburn. He was born at the wrong time and place, and fate treated him unkindly until the very end." A "Weird" Modernism by Philip Gelatt "While the likes of Eliot, Pound, Stevens, and Stein are the most commonly studied poets of the early 20th century there existed, no doubt, countless other poets working in more popular publications." The Emperor of Dreams by Clark Ashton Smith Review by Mark Greener "Despite being one of the great three Weird Tales writers, Clark Ashton Smith is less well known than either Robert E. Howard or Howard P. Lovecraft"

In the years immediately following in Trinidad, his work as poet, dramatist, director created a vital local theater as well as bringing increasing international attention to his own work in growing readerships, performances of his plays and an ever increasing list of well deserved prizes. Derek Walcott is both from a great Caribbean literary tradition and is definitive of it.
