In this meditative and incisive collection, Pulitzer Prize winner
Stephen Dunn draws on themes of morality and mortality to explore
the innermost machinations of human nature. Shifting in tone but
never wavering in their essential honesty, these poems reflect on
desire, restraint and the roles we play in an ever-evolving
society. A stunning sequence on the relationship between the
speaker and "Mrs. Cavendish" examines an intimacy sustained and
repelled by politics, philosophy and attraction. Wide-ranging,
intellectually daring and wry, Pagan Virtues reminds us of Dunn's
penetrating eye for the universal and the specific, and his ability
to highlight our contradictions with tenderness and wit.
