A Pulitzer Prize-winning author and “one of the greatest poets of our age … the Thoreau of our era” (Edward Hirsch) delivers “one of the most beautiful and moving collections of poetry of his career … a book of deep historical resonance and luminous poetic grace” (Los Angeles Times Book Review).  

“With each new book we have been reminded why, for forty years, he has remained a pivotal figure in the literary life of this country … [he] continues to earn his place as one of our most influential and compelling contemporary poets.” —Los Angeles Times Book Review
