Did both Robert Lowell and Manuel Puig write?
Robert Lowell Robert Traill Spence Lowell IV ( ; March 1, 1917 – September 12, 1977) was an American poet. He was born into a Boston Brahmin family that could trace its origins back to the "Mayflower". His family, past and present, were important subjects in his poetry. Growing up in Boston also informed his poems, which were frequently set in Boston and the New England region. The literary scholar Paula Hayes believes that Lowell mythologized New England, particularly in his early work.
Lord Weary's Castle Lord Weary's Castle, Robert Lowell's second book of poetry, won the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry in 1947 when Lowell was only thirty. Robert Giroux, who was the publisher of Lowell's wife at the time, Jean Stafford, also became Lowell's publisher after he saw the manuscript for "Lord Weary's Castle" and was very impressed; he later stated that "Lord Weary's Castle" was the most successful book of poems that he ever published.
