Red Owl : Poems Paperback / softback
by ROBERT MORGAN
Paperback / softback
Description
This book introduces to the Norton imprint a new poet with a strong original voice.
Robert Morgan writes out of the central tradition of American poetry.
His lyrics, rooted though they are in the specifics of the everyday--in earth and leaves, lakes and stones--reach through and beyond these to transcendence, to mystery; they intertwine animate and inanimate, inner and outer, idea and object.
As David Kalstone puts it, Morgan is "faithful to the natural facts and yet so aware of the mysterious instincts which allow us in the first place to see, hear, observe such facts."
