Product Description

Culled from two dozen poetry books, and drawing from six decades of her writing life, "The Selected Poems of Denise Levertov" offers a chronological overview of her great body of work. As a child, Denise Levertov (1923-1997) sent her poems to T.S. Eliot, who admired and encouraged her. Born in England and educated at home, she emigrated to the United States in 1948, and became one of the most important American poets of the second half of the 20th century. Levertov - who won the Robert Frost Medal, the Shelley Memorial Award, and the Lannan Prize - was also a staunch anti-war activist and environmentalist.
