About this book
The acclaimed collection by the Pulitzer Prizeâwinning poet whose work is "conceived in a manner that never ceased to astonish" (Helen Vendler,
The New Republic).
Over the course of nineteen collections of poems, former US Poet Laureate Charles Wright has built "one of the truly distinctive bodies of poetry created in the second half of the twentieth century" (David Young, Contemporary Poets).
Bye-and-Bye, which brings together selections from Wright's more recent volumesâincluding the entirety of Littlefoot, Wright's moving, book-length meditation on mortalityâshowcases the themes and images that have defined his mature work: the true affinity between writer and subject, human and nature; the tenuous relationship between description and actuality; and the search for a truth that transcends change and death.
Winner of the 2013 Bollingen Prize,. Bye-and-Bye is a wonderful introduction to the poetic vision of one of America's finest and best-loved poets.
