Description


Poetry. Winner of the 2003 Jane Kenyon Award for Outstanding Book of Poetry. The quality of persistent attention in Berger's work constitutes, I think, the heart of the poetic act. It is hard enough to find the inner space and self-command for that attention in our time; it is a matter of verbal gift and discipline to be able to make such attention audible to others. It matters that her attention is paid to such endangered objects as human love and the extra-human natural world; to the intricate connection between our conduct of love and that imperiled world--Mary Baine Campbell, author of The World, The Flesh, and The Angels.
