Description

The poems of Edgar Bowers have been highly praised since his first book, The Form of Loss, appeared in 1956. Now, in this gathering of forty years' work, one can see that Bowers arrived almost fully formed as the major poet he has continued to be. This volume contains, in addition to the contents of earlier books, a substantial amount of new work, all of it dazzling in its elegant verse-making and precise emotional discharge.
