Descrizione libro Hardcover. Condizione: New. Condizione sovraccoperta: New. 1st Edition. University of Missouri Press, 1991. First edition, first printing. Hardbound. New/New, a perfect unread copy, still in shrink-wrap! Poet laureate of the U.S. (1988-1990), critic, fiction writer and teacher, Nemerov here gathers selected works--most of it prose long out of print--from 1947 to 1987. His poetry is formal and disciplined, made radiant by the wry, the fresh, the shocking image. Reminders of mortality arise from his observation of creatures: the "wide and moony grin" of "The Goose Fish," over whose remains two lovers stumble on a beach at night. In the charming "Digressions Around a Crow," the essayist watches his son play with an oddly tame crow. Other essays indicate that the act of poetry is ascetic dedication ("The Swaying Form: A Problem in Poetry"), that great art is sacred ("Composition and Fate in the Short Novel"). Nemerov's critical stance is the traditional, humanely patriarchal aesthetic of mid-century, undisturbed by current trends; his criteria for excellence derive from those he admires, namely, cultured white male authors. The fiction ranges from primly whimsical stories to the novel Federigo (1954), a learned, witty farce of adultery and the doppelganger. FERRY. Codice articolo 84120
