Here, in his eighties, having taken stock of the body of his work-rigorous, gorgeous verse that is the result of seventy years of ambition and pleasure-he strips it down.The Selected Poems of Donald Hall reflects the poets handpicked, concise selection, showcasing work rich with humor and eros and a kind of simplicity that succeeds in engaging the reader in the first few lines (Billy Collins).From the enduring My Son My Executioner to Names of Horses to Without, Donald Halls best poems deliver a banquet in the mouth (Charles Simic) and an aching elegance (Baltimore Sun). For the first-time reader or an old friend, these are, above all others, the poems to read, reread, and remember. However wrenching [Halls poems] may be from line to line, they tell a story that is essentially reassuring: art and love are compatible, genius is companionable, and people stand by one another in the end (New York Times Book Review).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51971792142624,"sku":"NEW0544555600","price":29.17,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/41HDYcsQhEL.jpg?v=1783780555","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-selected-poems-of-donald-hall-0544555600","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
