The ability to write poems has "abandoned" Donald Hall, now in his eighties, one of the most significant ? and beloved ? poets of his generation. Instead of creating new poems, he has looked back over his astonishingly rich body of work and hand-picked poems for this final, concise volume that will delight, and endure. AUTHOR: Donald Hall, who served as poet laureate of the United States from 2006 to 2007, is a member of the American Academy of Arts and Letters and a recipient of the National Medal of the Arts, awarded by the president. REVIEWS: 'The Selected Poems of Donald Hall 'is the definitive collection, showcasing poems rich with humour and eros and "a kind of simplicity that succeeds in engaging the reader in the first few lines" (Billy Collins). "However wrenching [Hall's poems] may be from line to line, they tell a story that is essentially reassuring: art and love are compatible, genius is companionable, and people stand by one another in the end" (New York Times Book Review). SELLING POINTS: ? Hall has been writing and publishing his work for more than half a century. Over that time, he has won numerous awards, including the Frost Medal, the Caldecott Medal, and two Guggenheim fellowships. He was a poet laureate of the United States, and recently received a National Medal of the Arts. ? His previous selected poems (White Apples and the Taste of Stone) was a poetry bestseller ? This is the selection from his life's work he feels is essential.
