Now, twenty years later, Graham returns with a new selection, this time from eleven volumes, including previously unpublished work, which, in its breathtaking overview, illuminates of the development of her remarkable poetry thus far.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eFrom the New World--Poems 1976-2014\u003c\/em\u003e, we can witness the unfolding of Graham's signature ethical and eco-political concerns, as well as her deft exploration of mythology, history, love and, increasingly, love of the world in a time of crisis. As the work evolves, the depth of compassion grows--gradually transforming, widening and expanding her extraordinary formal resources and her inimitable style.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese pages present a brilliant portrait one of the major voices of American contemporary poetry. As critic Calvin Bedient says, \"If Graham has proved oversized as a poet in the field of contemporary poetry, it is because she continually recalls the great Western tradition of philosophical and religious inquiry . . . tenaciously thinking and feeling her way through layer after layer of perception, like no poet before her.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jorie Graham\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0062315447\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780062315441\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Ecco Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/25\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 384\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 7.20w x 1.00d","brand":"Jorie Graham","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43995483373823,"sku":"9780062315441","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_21e72e9e-9207-47a6-8994-3dbeab696042.jpg?v=1683336071","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/from-the-new-world-jorie-graham-9780062315441","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
