Ted Kooser sees a writer's workbooks as the stepping-stones on
which a poet makes his way across the stream of experience toward a
poem. Because those wobbly stones are only inches above the
quotidian rush, what's jotted there has an immediacy that is
intimate and close to life.
Kooser, winner of the Pultizer Prize and a former U.S. poet
laureate, has filled scores of workbooks. "The Wheeling Year"
offers a sequence of contemplative prose observations about nature,
place, and time arranged according to the calendar year.
Written by one of America's most beloved poets, this book is
published in the year in which Kooser turns seventy-five, with
sixty years of workbooks stretching behind him.
