Collected Poems, 1930-1993 (Hardcover, New)

Lucid, ardent, and contemplative, May Sarton was one of America's best-loved writers. This comprehensive collection celebrated six decades of bold imagination and fifteen books of poetry, the creative output of a lifetime. Arranged chronologically, these poems reveal the full breadth of Sarton's creative vision. Themes include the search for an inward order, her passions, the natural world, self-knowledge, and in her latest poems, the trials of old age. Moving through Sarton's work, we see her at ease in both traditional forms and free verse, finding inspiration in snow over a dark sea, a cat's footfall on the stairs, an unexpected love affair. Here is the creative process itself, its sources, demands, and joys—a handbook of the modern poetic psyche.
