Stephen Dunn is justly celebrated as one of the strongest poets of his generation. Now in this rich gathering, he selects from his eight collections and includes sixteen new poems marked by the haunting ""Snowmass Cycle."" The heralded clarity and intelligence of Dunn''s poems are in full evidence here, as is his ability to charm and evoke pathos. As the poet''s earlier focus moves from - but never entirely forsakes - the mysteries of dailiness and the complications of domestic life, he more openly embraces the philosophical and social concerns that have always been at the heart of his work. As ever, wit happily resides with seriousness, affirmation coexists with hardship. ""I want to find the cool, precise language / for how passion gives rise to passion, "" Dunn says in one of the new poems. For two decades, such insistence has led him to a wise lucidity that places him among our consequential poets. | New And Selected Poems 1974to1994 by Stephen Dunn Paperback | Indigo Chapters Books > Poetry P10106, Stephen Dunn<
