From the winner of the Pulitzer Prize and the Ruth Lilly Prize
This new collection by acclaimed poet Carl Dennis is about
vocation in the largest sense, the work that we believe gives our
lives meaning, and the challenges that come in defining such work
and in doing it well. The poems approach their subject from a
variety of perspectives: a calling may involve a compromise with
limitations, or be an expression of individual purpose; if a
calling in some poems provides an alternative to the disorder of
the world, in others it offers a means to shape the world as we are
shaped by it. As the poems speak to each other, they form a
dialogue of attitudes that makes room for both frustration and
achievement, a dialogue that includes us and takes us beyond
ourselves.
