Inhaltsangabe

The poet Jane Kenyon earned wide acclaim for her deeply spiritual lyrics, many of them written in the face of her own mortality. During the year of her dying, Hayden Carruth's faithful correspondence, collected here, gives us insight into the inner life of a major poet as he confronts the loss of a dear friend. These letters transcend the personal, offering an extended meditation on age and death, and on the art of poetry.
