The definitive collection of one of the most celebrated poets of his generation and a master of the lyric poem in its richest, most flexible registers
Born in 1939, Stanley Plumly wrote poems that explored the deep interiors of the human heart and mind against a wide backdrop of cultural and historical events. Profoundly personal yet socially astute, his work is both descriptively exact and allusive, engaging nature and art as well as family and friendship. Drawing on his existing work and including nine brilliant new poems, Collected Poems gathers the full range of Plumly’s talent as it charts the development of his enduring contribution to the American lyric. The volume stands as a tribute to Plumly’s artistic vision and will be welcomed by his many readers now and in the generations to come.
