The modern poet expresses his outrage at the sufferings of war, the sorrows of autumn, and the loneliness of survival

Breathtaking

I'm in the process of relocating to the Detroit area and someone there mentioned the works of Philip Levine to me. I began reading his poetry because of the Detroit connection, but above that I fell in love with his voice because his poetry is breathtakingly insightful, powerful and tender. I can't recommend this book or this poet enough. He is a master.
Early Levine

One of Levin's early volumes. I found it a bit private in its verses. I would try a later volume if you are new to Mr. Levine's poetry.
terrific!

I hadn't know this early Levine collection, and it is right up there; terrific!
