"From one of America's most beloved poets, a piercing new collection reflecting on the characters and encounters that haunt us through this life and into the next. [] Leading us into a city stirring with gravediggers and beggars, lovers and dogs, Charles Simic returns with a brilliant collection full of his singular wit, dark humor, and tenderheartedness. In poems that are often as spare as they are monumental, he captures the fleeting moments of modern life--peering inside pawnshop windows, brushing shoulders with strangers on the street, and walking familiar cemetery rows--to uncover all the beauty and worry hiding in plain sight. As the poet reflects on a lifetime's worth of pleasure and loss, he recalls instances when he 'made excuses and hurried away,' and considers the way memory always trails just behind. NO LAND IN SIGHT is a testament to all we leave in our wake and, simultaneously, all we hang on to: the passing minutes, the evening's stillness, and the many lives we inhabit in dim thresholds and bright mornings alike." [jacket copy] "This latest offering from Simic features his signature impish, uncanny take on metaphysics. As he contemplates memory, death, and the detritus of daily life, Simic makes the world itself his interlocutor, projecting his imagination onto the inanimate and in-between."--The New Yorker. "Few contemporary poets have been as influential--or as inimitable--as Charles Simic. His poetry is comic and elegiac in equal measure. It has an Old World sensibility. . . that he pins to a New World lightness of heart."--The New York Times Book Review. Near pristine hardcover w/sharp corners (very slight beump lower boards) & crisp edges, a square & tight binding, wrapped in an intact NF jacket (lighthearted photo illustration, minor crinkling on back top edge, no tears) covered in archival mylar. A typically beautiful Knopf production, quite presentable.
