The Thread: New and Selected Poems - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

In this collection, Stephen Sandy gathers his most striking poems from five previous books written over thirty-five years and adds memorable new ones to present a retrospective on his career to date.
Sandy has lived in some of the world's great urban centers and captures in these poems essential vibrations of modern and postmodern life.
While Sandy's poems address timeless issues, they also take up recent occurrences, including the passage of the Hale-Bopp comet and the deaths of Allen Ginsberg and Gianni Versace. A poet of wit and loss, he is deeply involved with the challenge to faith in our time; he writes out of the Western tradition in terms that are deeply tinged with Eastern thinking.
