James Merrill as a boy on slide
Subject
Merrill, James, 1926-1995
Description
James Merrill as a boy on a slide. "As a child, Jimmy was always attended by someone...So it's striking that, as an adult, he remembered his childhood as painfully lonely...the loneliness of a young mind engaged with private thoughts of mortality, puppets, and romantic legends...Jimmy was essentially an only child."
