Summary
Raymond Carver, acclaimed as "one of the true contemporary masters" of the short story, demonstrates, in this first major collection of his poems, his talents in this form. Drawing poetic effects from the commonplace, Carver's poems bring us back to the "real world" more forcibly than his stories because we generally expect poetry to transport us to realms beyond the ordinary. While his diction is prose-like, some of his poems are marked by painful intensity and others by graceful and exuberant language. As Jonathan Yardley puts it, his "eye is so clear, it almost breaks your heart." ISBN 0-394-54470-6 : $13.95.
