Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this acclaimed poetry volume, the Pulitzer and National Book Award–winner explores lifelong love and the invisible boundary between life and death. Over his long and prolific career, Galway Kinnell established himself as one of America’s greatest and most popular poets. In 2006, after a decade-long pause in creative output, he delivered what would become one of his last and most celebrated collections, Strong Is Your Hold. The book’s title derives from Walt Whitman’s “Last Invocation”: “Strong is your hold O mortal flesh, / Strong is your hold O love.” In this collection, Kinnell gives us poems of intermingling with the natural world, love poems and evocations of sexuality, poems about his father, his children, poet friends, poet heroes, and mythic figures. Included also is “When the Towers Fell,” his stunning requiem for those who died in the World Trade Center on 9/11. This eBook edition of Strong Is Your Hold does not include a CD or audio download.

Download or read book Collected Poems written by Galway Kinnell and published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. This book was released on 2017-12-05 with total page 602 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essential collection by the Pulitzer Prize and National Book Award-winner who was “one of the true master poets of his generation” (The New York Times). In the words of Galway Kinnell, it is “the poet’s job to figure out what’s happening within oneself, to figure out the connection between the self and the world, and to get it down in words that have a lasting shape, that have a chance of lasting.” With this deeply probing and restlessly curious sensibility, Kinnell spend decades producing some of American poetry’s most beloved and revered works. This comprehensive volume includes Kinnell’s expansive poem of immigrant life on the Lower East Side of New York, “The Avenue Bearing the Initial of Christ into the New World,”; his incantatory book-length poem, The Book of Nightmares; and a searing evocation of Hiroshima in “The Fundamental Project of Technology.” It covers the iconic themes of Kinnell’s middle years—eros, family, and the natural world—in works such as “After Making Love We Hear Footsteps,” “The Bear,” “Saint Francis and the Sow,” and “Blackberry Eating.” And includes the unflinchingly introspective work of his later years. Spanning six decades, this is the essential collection for old and new devotees of Galway Kinnell: “a poet of the rarest ability…who can flesh out music, raise the spirits, and break the heart” (Boston Globe).

Book Synopsis Galway Kinnell by : Richard James Calhoun
Download or read book Galway Kinnell written by Richard James Calhoun and published by New York : Twayne Publishers ; Toronto : Maxwell Macmillan Canada ; New York : Maxwell Macmillan International. This book was released on 1992 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In this original study of the life and works of the American poet Galway Kinnell, Richard J. Calhoun offers a fresh, comprehensive look at this award-winning writer, who has so often been misunderstood by critics. Neither a leader of a movement nor a follower, Kinnell has received relatively little representation in standard poetry anthologies, despite his importance in modern verse. He has nevertheless attracted a devoted readership and an increasing amount of critical attention, winning the Pulitzer Prize for poetry in 1983, and sharing an American Book Award in the same year. This critical study seeks to convey the full range of Kinnell's achievement." "Kinnell has produced abundantly in the course of a career that has spanned more than thirty years, publishing eight major volumes of poetry, a novel, assorted critical essays and commentary on his own works in the form of "self-interviews" and an acclaimed translation of the verse of Francois Villon. In this study, Calhoun places Kinnell in the tradition of the postmodern, personal poets like Theodore Roethke and Robert Lowell, and demonstrates the wide variety of models Kinnell has followed, from Whitman to Rainer Maria Rilke. In doing so, Calhoun challenges those critics who have perceived Kinnell as a poet undeviatingly concerned with mortality, and provides a fresh, nuanced interpretation of Kinnell's work, one that does not try to force the variegated work of this accomplished poet into preconceived categories. Considering in turn Kinnell's life, milieu, works, and influence, Calhoun concludes that the poet has attempted to imaginatively identify with all living creatures of the natural world, to understand the morality required of conscious, living creatures in the face of their mortality."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book Synopsis The Sanity of Earth and Grass by : Robert Winner
Download or read book The Sanity of Earth and Grass written by Robert Winner and published by Tilbury House Publishers. This book was released on 1994 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sanity of Earth and Grass brings together over a hundred poems, thirty-one of them never before published, by a remarkable American poet. A gregarious person who loved and celebrated human bonds, Winner also drew strength from nature, and his poems glow with sensual pleasure and confrontation. As he says in On Lexington Avenue, What I like is smell . . . the enormous kindness of sensation. At the same time, and without self-pity, he probes graphically and at unusual depth the violence, deprivation, and injustice that are part of so many lives.
