United States poet laureate & Pulitzer Prize winner, Charles Simic adds a new introduction to the most comprehensive collection of his early poetry from 1963-1983.Charles Simic was widely recognized as one of the most visceral and unique poets writing today. His work has won numerous awards, among them the 1990 Pulitzer Prize, a MacArthur Foundation “genius grant,” the Griffin International Poetry Prize, the Wallace Stevens Award, and the appointment as US poet laureate. He taught English and creative writing for over 30 years at the University of New Hampshire.
