The poems of the legendary Nobel Laureate, in one volume at last

One of the greatest and grandest advocates of the literary vocation, Joseph Brodsky truly lived his life as a poet, and for it earned eighteen months in an Arctic labor camp, expulsion from his native country, and the Nobel Prize in Literature. Such were one man's wages. Here, collected for the first time, are all the poems he published in English, from his earliest collaborations with Derek Walcott, Richard Wilbur, Howard Moss, and Anthony Hecht to the moving farewell poems he wrote near the end of his life. With nearly two hundred poems, several of them never before published in book form, this will be the essential volume of Brodsky's work.

About Joseph Brodsky

Joseph Brodsky (1940–1996) was born in Leningrad, USSR. In 1964 Soviet authorities convicted him of "social parasitism" and sentenced him to five years of hard labor in the Arkhangelsk region; international pressure secured his release in 1965. Expelled from the USSR in 1972, he settled in the United States and taught at the University of Michigan and Mount Holyoke College. He received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1987 and served as Poet Laureate Consultant in Poetry to the Library of Congress from 1991 to 1992. His English-language collections include A Part of Speech (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 1980) and To Urania (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 1988).
