[New-Poetry] Peter Viereck, Poet and Conservative Theorist, Dies at 89

[Suzanne Burns]

Shizer.

I interviewed him for the Valley Advocate when I was 23, and he got me
totally tanked on Irish whiskey.  Later he helped me crash Joseph Brodsky's
Nobel party by telling me that if I show up in a short dress, nobody will
ask questions. :-)   Ah, memories.

Rest in Peace Peter.  You were one strange duck, and I didn't buy into most
of your views, but you were always very interesting.

Suzanne
