A Far Country Near: Poems New and Selected

0/5 ( ratings)

"In 'A Far Country Near,' Father Murray Bodo reminds us that the poet's true vocation is one of poring over the abundant phenomena before him—the landscape, its fauna, the lives of those who have walked this way before, the very textures of text—and pressing those images for revelation. Bringing together both new work and poems published since 1980, Father Murray makes manifest the profound nearness of all that reaches endlessly far, every discrete occasion partaking of 'the beauty of life and death—and life.'"—Scott Cairns, author of "Slow Pilgrim: The Collected Poems"

Language: English

Pages: 300

Format: Paperback
