Sweet Wolf: Selected & New Poems

Robert McDowell's poems over the last 35 years are widely recognized as major achievements in reviving narrative and consistently striving to create, as poet and critic Chad Abushanab writes in his Introduction, "the song in the story". McDowell in poetry also embraces Emily Dickinson's call to engage "Internal difference/Where the meanings, are". McDowell's poems appear widely in magazines, journals, newspapers, anthologies and earlier collections.
