Making Certain It Goes on: The Collected Poems of Richard Hugo by: Hugo Richard; Kittredge, William Introduction

Making Certain It Goes on: The Collected Poems of Richard Hugo
by: Hugo Richard; Kittredge, William Introduction

Hardcover. NY, Norton, 2nd pr., 1984, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, Hardcover in a bright, unclipped dust jacket, 456 pages. This increasingly uncommon collection of Hugo's published poetry also contains 22 new poems not previously collected. 456 pages, indexed. This posthumously published book of Hugo's collected poetry evinces that Hugo's poems are marked by crisp, gorgeous images of nature that often stand in contrast to his own depression, loneliness, and alcoholism. Although almost always written in free verse, his poems have a strong sense of rhythm that often echoes iambic meters. He also wrote of large number of informal epistolary poems at a time when that form was unfashionable. Primarily a regionalist, Hugo's work reflects the economic depression of the Northwest, particularly Montana.

The Book of a Small Fisherman (SIGNED COPY)by: Solonche J. R.

The Book of a Small Fisherman (SIGNED COPY)
by: Solonche J. R.

Softcover. Brunswick ME, Shanti Arts , 1st, 2023, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: None, Softcover, 121 pages. Poet J. R. Solonche adds The Book of a Small Fisherman to his impressive list of over thirty published poetry collections. His poems, says Chase Twichell, "are an extraordinary amalgam of wit, close observation, humor, and clear-seeing. Each one singles out and illuminates an ordinary moment-ordinary, that is, until the poet explodes into a miniature epiphany. Easy of access and frequently profound, J. R. Solonche's poems induce in me a state of delighted surprise."
