Jane Hirshfield is a visionary American writer whose poems ask
nothing less than what it is to be human. Both sensual meditations
and passionate investigations, they reveal complex truths in
language luminous and precise. Rooted in the living world, her
poems celebrate and elucidate a hard-won affirmation of our human
fate. Born of a rigorous questioning of heart, spirit and mind,
they have become indispensible to many American readers in
navigating their own lives. Hers is a poetry of clarity and hybrid
vigour, drawing deeply on English and American traditions but also
those of world poetry. The poetries of modern and classical Greece,
of Horace and Catullus, of classical China and Japan and Eastern
Europe all resonate in Jane Hirshfield's structures of thought and
in her sensibilities. Indelibly of our time yet seated in the
lineage of poetic discovery, these poems are meant to endure.
