"One follows these poems as one follows music.... A mesmerizing American voice." --Helen Vendler, The New Yorker
The stunning third book of poems from Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Jorie Graham
The End of Beauty is a remarkably striking, coherent collection that explores, in a language as precise and rich as any being written, the realm of belief and the methods by which we attempt to figure our world.
"Blake's dialectics of mental flight, Whitman's songs of the open road, Stevens's 'endlessly proliferating poem, ' Eliot's Quartets, Ashbery's prose poems have all taken some of the same chances. Graham keeps creative energy alive and unpredictable in these poems by sudden changes of focus; her psychic elations and hesitations are Romantic in their volatility but post-Romantic in their skepticism, their self-interruptions, their own stage directions." --The New Yorker
