The critically revered , former National Book Award winning poet's "first book of poetry since "Sumerian Vistas" (1987). A.R. Ammons, one of America's greatest living poets, uses an unlikely subject-garbage-as the occasion for a profuond and often funny meditation on nature and mutability. Driving along I-95 in Florida the poet sights a smoldering mountain of the stuff and is moved to muse: "garbage has to be the poem of our time because / garbage is spiritual, believable enough / to get our attention, getting in the way, piling / up, stinking, turning brooks brownish and / creamy white: what else deflects us from the / errors of our illusionary ways.". 121 pages. LP. Codice articolo 013326
