The former Poet Laureate of the United States, Nemerov gives us a
lucid and precise twist on the commonplaces of everyday life.
"The Collected Poems of Howard Nemerov" won both the National Book
Award and the Pulitzer Prize in 1978.
"Howard Nemerov is a witty, urbane, thoughtful poet, grounded in
the classics, a master of the craft. It is refreshing to read his
work. . . . "--"Minneapolis Tribune"
"The world causes in Nemerov a mingled revulsion and love, and a
hopeless hope is the most attractive quality in his poems, which
slowly turn obverse to reverse, seeing the permanence of change,
the vices of virtue, the evanescence of solidities and the errors
of truth."--Helen Vendler, "New York Times Book Review"
