Description

One of Raymond Carver's final collections of poetry, moving from the beauty of the natural world to thoughts of mortality and family and art. Throughout, Carver "has the astonished, chastened voice of a person who has survived a wreck, as surprised that he had a life before it as that he has one afterward, willing to remember both sides" (The New York Times Book Review).

Transcendent. Carver's voice is singular, sure, and a little rough from wear. These poems go with me always.
