His humane work attests to a conviction that, in a world which 'is everything that is the case', diversities and disparities which seem beyond reconciliation or resolution are not beyond our imaginative reach or empathetic grasp.... More outward-looking and international-minded though he is than most contemporary American poets, Tillinghast nonetheless registers his country's history on his pulse.... In sinewy lines and solid stanzas-fruits of a lifetime's devotion to the craft-Tillinghast's most recent poems, undoubtedly his finest to date, fuse a sobering sense of mortality with the exhilaration of renewal, indeed rejuvenation, through love.\" -Dennis O'Driscoll, from the Introduction\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dedalus Press","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47609091588247,"sku":"9781906614133","price":2551.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781906614133.webp?v=1775056264","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/selected-poems-9781906614133","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
