Wild Is the Wind: Poems by Carl Phillips (English) Paperback Book

Description: Wild Is the Wind by Carl Phillips Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description A powerful, inventive collection from one of Americas most critically admired poets Publisher Description "What has restlessness been for?"In Wild Is the Wind, Carl Phillips reflects on love as depicted in the jazz standard for which the book is named-love that is at once restless, reckless, and yet desired for its potential to bring stability. In the process, he pitches estrangement against communion, examines the past as history versus the past as memory, and reflects on the pasts capacity both to teach and to mislead us-and also to make us hesitate in the face of love, given the loss and damage that are, often enough, loves fallout. How "to say no to despair"? How to take perhaps that greatest risk, the risk of believing in what offers no guarantee? These poems that, in their wedding of the philosophical, meditative, and lyric modes, mark a new stage in his remarkable work, stand as further proof that "if Carl Phillips had not come onto the scene, we would have needed to invent him. His idiosyncratic style, his innovative method, and his unique voice are essential steps in the evolution of the craft" (Judith Kitchen, The Georgia Review). Author Biography Carl Phillips is the author of thirteen previous books of poetry, including Reconnaissance, winner of the PEN Center USAs Poetry Award and the Lambda Literary Award, and Double Shadow, winner of the Los Angeles Times Book Prize. He teaches at Washington University in St. Louis.
