Social phenomena are observed in rich detail--a \"dictator's bust\" presiding over a train car of doomed passengers--and the collection is propelled by empathy and curiosity. Under Tranströmer's watchful eye, no subject is overlooked: Milij Balakirev, the Russian composer; Nils Dacke, the Swedish peasant who led a rebellion against the king; and him, the stranger who forgets his name by the roadside.

As the formalism of Merwin's early work loosened into the open, unpunctuated style he developed during the Civil Rights Movement--when urgent times demanded innovative modes of expression--readers can trace the evolution of one voice's commitment to moral, spiritual, and aesthetic inquiry. Across the decades, beyond headlines, policies, and trends, W.S. Merwin's poems point to the lessons that hide in the shadows of sentience.","brand":"W S Merwin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43806038884394,"sku":"9781556595134","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/0891\/6522\/files\/essential-ws-merwin-8310569.jpg?v=1762480924"},{"product_id":"migration-new-selected-poems","title":"Migration: New \u0026 Selected Poems","description":"Winner of the National Book Award, Migration is the definitive Merwin volume.

Merwin's final and exquisite book brims with longing, loss, and unanswerable questions. In Garden Time, Merwin's luminous, ethereal voice gently interrogates mortality; at the very end of his life, he sings lovingly to a tireless world--although not without trepidation. When he could no longer see well enough to write, he dictated his poems to his wife, Paula. The result is a book contemplative and delicate, tender and melancholy. In this gorgeous, mindful, and life-affirming book, our greatest poet channels energy from his memories and deep connection to the world so as to remind us that \"The only hope is to be the daylight.\"","brand":"W S Merwin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43806039212074,"sku":"9781556595943","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/0891\/6522\/files\/garden-time-9480723.jpg?v=1762480924"},{"product_id":"lice","title":"Lice","description":"This fiftieth anniversary edition revisits a groundbreaking moment in American poetry. \u003ci\u003eThe Lice\u003c\/i\u003e responded, in part, to the atrocities of the Vietnam War and the national unrest of the Civil Rights Movement.
