Charles Wright, 2012
This collection gathers selections from Charles Wright's later poetry, including the complete text of "Littlefoot," a profound meditation on mortality. The poems explore enduring themes and imagery characteristic of his mature work: the deep connection between the writer and their subject, the relationship between humans and nature, the complex interplay between description and reality, and the pursuit of a truth that endures beyond change and death. "Bye-and-Bye" offers a compelling introduction to the significant late period of one of America's esteemed poets.
