Each poem starts up from its own unique occasion and is then conducted through surprising (sometimes unnerving) and self-steadying domains. The result is a daring, delicate, unguarded, and tender collection. After his last three books--\u003ci\u003eTouch, Blackbird and Wolf\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eMiddle Earth\u003c\/i\u003e--in which the sonnet was a thrown shape and not merely a template, Cole's buoyant new poems seem trim and terse, with a forthright, clear-eyed moral gaze. In their sorrowful richness, they combine a susceptibility to sensuousness and an awareness of desolation. Cole transforms the pain of experience into the keen pleasure of expressive language, with his precise reliability of detail, a supple wealth of sound, and a speculative truthfulness. \u003ci\u003eNothing to Declare\u003c\/i\u003e is a rare work that is light in touch but with just enough weight to mark the soul.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Henri Cole","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43852628951082,"sku":"9780374536695","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/0891\/6522\/files\/nothing-to-declare-poems-7822389.jpg?v=1764057731","url":"https:\/\/thepoetryshop.com\/products\/nothing-to-declare-poems","provider":"The Poetry Shop LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
