Mark Van Doren was a Pulitzer Prize Winner, a Poet Laureate of the United States, and a much beloved Professor of English at Columbia University for over 50 years. He taught, among others... Thomas Merton, Allen Ginsburg, and Jack Kerouac. His poetry is deeply personal and richly rendered... a genuine pleasure to read. "That God should love me is more wonderful,
