{"product_id":"the-poems-of-j-v-timothy-steele-9780804009980","title":"The Poems of J. V. Cunningham","description":"The lifework in verse of one of the century's finest and liveliest American poets, this collection of the poems of J. V. Cunningham (1911-85) documents the poet's development from his early days as an experimental modernist during the Depression to his emergence as the master of the classical \"plain style\"--distinguished by its wit, feeling, and subtlety. Often identified with the epigram--a genre in which he excelled as distinctively as Jonson, Herrick, and Landor--Cunningham also wrote in a wide range of other poetic forms and was a remarkable translator. This collection, designed to show the poet's range and skill, incorporates the materials of his 1971 \u003ci\u003eCollected Poems and Epigrams\u003c\/i\u003e and restores their original arrangement. It also adds many of his later poems and translations and some uncollected pieces from his periodicals. Timothy Steele's notes and introduction assist in re-establishing Cunningham's position as a twentieth-century original, a poet who is remembered equally for emotional power and stylistic purity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Timothy Steele\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0804009988\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780804009980\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Swallow Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/15\/1997\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 200\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.07w x 0.73d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/30\/1997 pg. 72","brand":"Timothy Steele","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48443699200255,"sku":"9780804009980","price":26.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f85f554a-1fb6-421c-9b37-c58dd9e15d96.jpg?v=1777207224","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-poems-of-j-v-timothy-steele-9780804009980","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
