Gradually the World: New and Selected Poems, 1982 - 2013
Burt Kimmelman
(Author)
Description
Poetry. Art. With drawings by Basil King. The specificity of Burt Kimmelman's poems has, for more than thirty years, been a singularly locating force. It situates us in space, in relation to the luminosity of objects, art, and one another. That every shadow of wonder can stand forth in the most familiar words is the gift this poet offers his readers time and again.--Susan HoweProduct Details
