"There is a physicality and a willfulness, a biblical sweep and grandness to Dickey's poetry whether he's writing about dust or combat, trees or animals, love or seasons . . . A definitive retrospective."-- Booklist "One of the things we should mean when we call a poet 'good' is that his work returns us to the world and not merely to the poet. We do not assimilate good poetry; we become included in its imagination. James Dickey is a good poet, very good."--Michael Goldman, The Nation, One of the things we should mean when we call a poet 'good' is that his work returns us to the world and not merely to the poet.

It is characteristically, whatever his subject, a clash, a confrontation, something that might happen in a cyclotron; and the particles that are struck off are new and packed with primal energy, particles of order destroyed during the act of creation . . . What I am left with is an awed sense of the pure power of these words"--Wallace Stegner "A career-spanning collection by National Book Award winner James Dickey, 'the high flier of American poets.'""--John Updike, There is a physicality and a willfulness, a biblical sweep and grandness to Dickey's poetry whether he's writing about dust or combat, trees or animals, love or seasons . . .

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
