In the Empire of the Air : The Poems of Donald Britton, Paperback / softback Book

In the Empire of the Air : The Poems of Donald Britton Paperback / softback

Edited by Reginald Shepherd, Philip Clark

Paperback / softback

Description

Described as "dazzling" by Edmund White and as a poet "who has The Gift and delivers The Goods" by Kenward Elmslie, Donald Britton published just one book of poetry, Italy, before his death from AIDS in 1994.

A Kind of Endlessness: The Selected Poems of Donald Britton reprints Italy alongside previously unpublished and uncollected poems to display the full range of Britton's fresh, vivid language and subtle humor.

It is poetry by turns glamorous, wistful, intellectual, and elegant, the sharp-eyed observations of a penetrating mind lost to the world too soon.
