Description:

Since the 1950s, Reynolds Price has garnered literary fame for his fiction, plays, memoirs, and poems. Collected Poems brings together all of his published work as well as new poems from a journal titled "Day and Nights." Begun while Price was struggling with spinal cancer, this work, which is notably different in form and tone from earlier poems, is from a meditation on death and dying that is remarkable in its evenhanded emotions and lack of easy sentiment. Even with this weighty subject matter, Price makes words sing; we are moved again and again to celebrate life and the endless ability of art to counteract the harm that comes to us in the world of the flesh.
