In Claude before Time and Space, her final collection, Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Claudia Emerson quietly but fiercely explores the themes of mortality and time.
In the first section of this book, "The Wheel," Emerson uses a rural southern setting in poems that reflect on memory, the self, and relationships. In section two, "Bird Ephemera, " she explores historical figures--from an early naturalist and writer who raised her children in poverty to a small-town doctor. The collection concludes with a series of poems named after the poet's father. This illuminating body of work displays a master poet at the height of her craft.Nous publions uniquement les avis qui respectent les conditions requises. Consultez nos conditions pour les avis.
