Poems 1972-1982
Back in print from New Directions are crucial texts from essential poets in two new volumes. Poems 1972-1982 collects Denise Levertov's The Freeing of Dust (1975), Life in the Forest (1978) and Candles in Babylon (1982). Levertov, who died in 1997 at 74, was one of the most eloquent critics of the war in Vietnam: "Each time around, fresh details,/ variations of place and weapon./ All night imagining murder."Copyright 2001 Cahners Business Information, Inc.
