Summary
Moss is an influential poet whose work has been widely published, including in The New Yorker, The Nation, The Times Literary Supplement, and Poetry. The History of Color offers forty New poems; work form Moss's previous books, Asleep in the Garden, The Intelligence of Clouds, The Skull of Adam, and The Wrong Angel; and a group of early poems not previously published in book form. Stanley Moss's poetry is made to be useful. Moss is a poet who, in making himself articulate, makes us articulate. Metaphors for wonder abound in the poetry of "our leading psalmist." Our "Ah who art in heaven" easily beomes the quieting "ah, ah, baby, " in the hands of this master.
