From Library Journal

A poet of unusual mindfulness, Levertov conjoins a delicate, mystical lyricism with a passional political consciousness. The poems in her most recent collection are inspired by the small miracles of the natural world, terrorism in Central America, paintings, and other artists, especially Rilke. Like the mystics she often evokes, Levertov finds transcendence in the acute observation of the ordinary. Indeed, the longing for transcendence suffuses these poems: "Because/ I know a different need has begun/ to cast its lines out from me/ into a place unknown, I reach/ for a silence almost present,/ elusive among my heartbeats." Levertov is among the finest poets writing today; this volume belongs in all collections of contemporary poetry.

Condition: Acceptable. LIGHTNING FAST SHIPPING! A heavily used, but still working copy. Coffee stain and wrinkling to the edge of the pages when a tired undergrad fell asleep and knocked their cup over on their books. The binding and pages of the book have been reinforced with tape, has tape and stickers on the cover, as well as lots of notes (some of the answers in the learning activities may be filled in) on the pages. Definitely not pretty, but it's a working copy at a great price that ships fast. ~ Book does NOT contain an access code or CD/DVD. Seller Inventory # #163E-0091
