Hardback. Zustand: Good. In his tenth collection of poetry, Franz Wright gives us an exquisite book of reconciliation with the past and acceptance of what may come in the future. From his earliest years, he writes in Will, he had the gift of impermanence / so I would be ready, / accompanied / by a rage to prove them wrong / . . . and that I too was worthy of love. This rage comes coupled with the poet's own brand of love, what he calls one / strange alone / heart's wish / to help all / hearts. Poetry is indeed Wright's help, and he delivers it to us with a wry sense of the daily in America: in his wonderfully local relationship to God (whom he encounters along with a catfish in the emerald shallows of Walden Pond); in the little West Virginia motel of the title poem, on the banks of the great Ohio River, where Tammy Wynette's on the marquee and he is visited by the figure of Walt Whitman, examining the tear on a dead face. Here, in Wheeling Motel, Wright's poetry continues to surprise us with its frank appraisal of our soul, and with his own combustible loneliness and unstoppable joy.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. PULITZER PRIZE WINNER . In this radiant new collection, Franz Wright shares his regard for life in all its forms and his belief in the promise of blessing and renewal. As he watches the "Resurrection of the little apple tree outside / my window," he shakes off his fear of mortality, concluding "what death . . . There is only / mine / or yours,- / but the world / will be filled with the living." In prayerlike poems he invokes the one "who spoke the world / into being" and celebrates a dazzling universe-snowflakes descending at nightfall, the intense yellow petals of the September sunflower, the planet adrift in a blizzard of stars, the simple mystery of loving other people. As Wright overcomes a natural tendency toward loneliness and isolation, he gives voice to his hope for "the only animal that commits suicide," and, to our deep pleasure, he arrives at a place of gratitude that is grounded in the earth and its moods.…

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. The Pulitzer Prize winner's final written work: poems of penetrating acceptance and humor, whose soul-sweeping gaze encompasses his own autobiography and the broken world he nonetheless gives thanks for "His lines glow with the light of honesty and self-deprecation." -The New Yorker "His hands strip poetry to its nub." -Los Angeles Times "Reading Wright is like walking through a plate-glass window on purpose. . . . The shattering sound you heard was your own heart breaking." -Chicago Tribune "My death is in the second drawer," writes Franz Wright. "While you're standing there, would you mind getting me one?" It is a thrill to be back in these cadences, in his world of exquisite solitude, as he ponders becoming a ghost and returning to a childhood room where, he says, "I won't have written any of it. / I will have back the rights / of anonymity," and there is nothing left that anyone can take from him. Wright's significant themes shine forth: radical acceptance of his own pain, mental illness, and loss; his belief in the poem's ability to rhyme with the mysteries of our worldly suffering; his nearly surreal vision of Christian grace. But most powerful for readers will be the tender force of his imagery-the "green vesperal rain at the screen," the "long Jeffersonian / $2-bill- / tinted twilight"-and, as he invites us to join him in his nicatorium, the smoking-porch of recovering addicts, the joy of finding this black-humorous voice still alive on the page to meet us. …
