His own poetry was less-known, and his family life--as revealed in some of these letters, some of his poems, and his memoirs--was unconventional. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJudson Jerome and Hayes Walker exchanged approximately eighty thousand words of correspondence from 1982 to 1991, nearly all of which is preserved in this volume. As fascinating as many of the letters are on many levels, readers will find much more here to enjoy and marvel at. Walker has included twelve of Jerome's most notable Writer's Digest columns, forty pages of Jerome's poetry, and memorial tributes from Jerome's friends and peers, with annotations and behind-the-scenes stories. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Dear Jud: A friendship in letters\" is a book that poets and poetry-lovers will enjoy and learn from.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hayes Walker\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 149057817X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781490578170\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/03\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 368\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.88lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.02h x 8.50w x 0.76d\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hayes Walker","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48485378523391,"sku":"9781490578170","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7556b723-74fd-4085-b81c-ce71b4d929ab.jpg?v=1778049373","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/dear-jud-hayes-walker-9781490578170","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
