About this Item

Paperback. Advent is American poet Daniel Rifenburgh's long-awaited first collection of poems. His work has previously appeared in leading U.S. journals, including The New Criterion, The Paris Review, The New Republic, Poetry East, Shenandoah and Western Humanities Review. In 1996 he received the prestigious Robert H. Winner Award from The Poetry Society of America, given "to honor an American poet in mid-life who has not previously been recognized." Technically accomplished, but only occasionally formal, Rifenburgh is essentially, as Richard Wilbur notes in his introduction, "a poet of strong, forthright feelings, both dark and light". His debut volume is certain, as Lucien Stryk has said, "to please all who care for the art." Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
