The Avenue Bearing The Initial Of Christ Into The New World - Poems: 1953-1964

Informationen zum Autor GALWAY KINNELL (1927–2014) was a MacArthur Fellow and state poet of Vermont. In 1982 his Selected Poems won the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Award. For many years he was the Erich Maria Remarque Professor of Creative Writing at New York University, as well as a chancellor of the Academy of American Poets. For thirty-five years—from  The Book of Nightmares to Mortal Acts and, most recently,  Strong Is Your Hold —Galway Kinnell enriched American poetry, not only with his poems but also with his teaching and powerful public readings. Klappentext This newly assembled volume draws from two books that were originally published in Galway Kinnell's first two decades of writing, WHAT A KINGDOM IT WAS (1960), which included the poem "The Avenue Bearing the Initial of Christ into the New World," and FLOWER HERDING ON MOUNT MONADNOCK (1964). Kinnell has revised some of the work in this new edition, and comments on his working method in a prefatory note.
