Pulitzer Prize for Poetry (1993), National Book Award Finalist for Poetry (1992), William Carlos Williams Award (1992)
This is my 1st book of poetry I've ever read and I may have gotten in a bit over my head.
56 Short Poems dealing with mother nature, seasons, life & death! Will admit that the poems did overwhelm me but glad I did try this out and promise to try another book of poetry soon (Maybe a Beginner's Guide to Poetry).
If you read poetry often you will understand why this book won the Pulitzer Prize, but if you are new to poetry you may want to start with an easier to understand collection! David N.
