Paperback. Zustand: Good. Amplitude: New and Selected Poemsby Tess GallagherA masterpiece of connection----Ted Gioia, San Francisco ChronicleGallagher's poems are rooted in a relentlessly willed attempt to come to terms with, to find words for, the fullness of life.--Young Adult Paperback Book GuideThe great joy in reading Tess Gallagher's poetry in Amplitude comes from discovering that she can and will do anything with language.--Bin Ramke, The Bloomsbury ReviewIt's that seesaw combination of earthiness and the ethereal, of the public and the intimate, of the difficult closeness of family (one of her best subjects) and wider concerns, all related in a firm and passionate yet subdued voice, that makes Tess Gallagher a great poet.--Frederick Koeppel, The Commercial AppealIn Amplitude Tess Gallagher conjures the Northwest's landscape of high green trees and shifting gray water, its climate of rain and subdued moonlight. Water-drenched and shady, the place encourages drifting or floating, rather than sudden turns, sharp edges. Gallagher's poems are full of departure and return, release and embrace--we know where home is, as we come to know her mother who felled trees and was once beautiful, her brother who repeats their father's life as a logger, their shared past as children who built cabins in the woods.--Emily Leider, San Francisco ChronicleGallagher's new collection, Amplitude, signals a shift away from the stark lyric cry. She pays increasing attention to storytelling within the poem, turning toward a poetic hybrid known as the narrative-lyric. While her poetry is no less dense in its imagery, no less intricate a structue of language, Gallagher's storytelling mode offers a more generous invitation to the reader than the abstruse raw strain of contemporary verse.--Jenny wyatt, Seattle Weekly.…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. The long-awaited and resplendent new poetry collection by Tess Gallagher, whose poems "are a gift of a poet's heart and soul to her readers" (Robert Coles) Don't sharpen them. Expectation, more dangerous than any blade. --"Knives in the Borrowed House" Fourteen years after Moon Crossing Bridge--Tess Gallagher's powerful elegies for her husband, Raymond Carver--Dear Ghosts, is the return of Gallagher's unequivocal voice. In these new poems, the ghosts of the past are conjured as part of the present day: the deceased beloved, the father long dead, the ailing mother, the victims of holocaust and war. With these spirits beside her, Gallagher confronts her own illness and mortality, and celebrates love and friendship in these spare lyrics and muscular narratives, each punctuated by her resilience and grace. Here is the new work by one of America's most accomplished poets.…
