Before he vanished in the fog of San Francisco, Weldon Kees (1914-55) was a poet, storyteller, critic, painter, musician, and filmmaker. What remains is a body of work and a large collection of letters that shed light on Kees's complex personality. Robert E. Knoll traces the odyssey of a Nebraska boy who made his way in a fiercely competitive national scene, befriending the movers and shakers of the art worlds on both coasts. Kees's letters--satirical, witty, poetic, gossipy, intensely individual--provide the feel of lives being lived, of a career going forth, and finally, of the darkness that engulfed him when, in Knoll's phrase, he was ten minutes from triumph.Binding Type: Paperback

Great
Size: Medium, Color: Black
The sleeves are exactly how it’s showing on the picture. The size is great. I believe it’s a good value for money. The color is amazing. The quality is great. It’s very light and it’s very comfortable.

Snazzy shirt
Size: Large, Color: Black
Fits great & looks wonderful. Can be worn casually or for work. Very wrinkly, just toss it in the dryer and they will come right out. It's lightweight & cool.

Great shirts have to iron first
Size: XX-Large Tall, Color: Black
They feel great the material, they’re thin, the style looks good, the length to and below my waist is good. For the cost they’re good shirts and they’re definitely loose fitting, however they shove them in a tight bag so if you plan on wearing this straight away from delivery day make sure you have an iron ready every single collar and I ordered over 7 shirts comes folded over. Took a star away for the fact they don’t pack them how you would find a higher price shirt packed and typically wear ready.

Simple and nice.
Size: 4X-Large, Color: Dark Grey
Nice shirt. Light weight. It’s true to size and skin friendly because it is cotton.

Perfect!
Size: Large, Color: Beige
Cool, comfortable, with a little stretch. Comes out of the dryer wrinkle free (be sure to hang it up right after you take it out of the dryer) price was reasonable. I measured my husband's neck and it fit exactly as it should. Good length to the back of it too, which is sometimes a problem for my husband. Do not see any quality issues. Not excessively thin or too thick. Really, I can't think of any way to improve on this shirt.
