Never: Poems
"Graham's poetry is among the most sensuously embodied and imaginative writing we have."--New York Times Book Review
A vibrantly focused and intense collection of verse from Jorie Graham, the Pulitzer Prize winning author of The Dream of the Unified Field.
...I am free to go.
I cannot of course come back. Not to this. Never.
It is a ghost posed on my lips. Here: never.
Deftly meditating on nature, spirit, and imagination, Never showcases one of America's most gifted and respected poets at the height of her creativity. These graceful, probing poems, distinguished by long, meticulously sculpted, almost muscular lines, are among the finest and most innovative compositions in the genre today.
