The Collected Poems of Amy Clampitt by Amy Clampitt
Requirements: epub reader, 2.18mb
Overview: When Amy Clampitt’s first book of poems, The Kingfisher, was published in January 1983, the response was jubilant. The poet was sixty-three years old, and there had been no debut like hers in recent memory. “A dance of language,” said May Swenson. “A genius for places,” wrote J. D. McClatchy, and the New York Times Book Review said, “With the publication of her brilliant first book, Clampitt immediately merits consideration as one of the most distinguished contemporary poets.”
She went on to publish four more collections in the next eleven years, the last one, A Silence Opens, appearing in the year she died.
Now, for the first time, the five collections are brought together in a single volume, allowing us to experience anew the distinctiveness of Amy Clampitt’s voice: the brilliant language–an appealing mix of formal and everyday expression–that poured out with such passion and was shaped in rhythms and patterns entirely her own.
