And Short the Season
by Maxine Kumin
About this book
From the Pulitzer Prize–winning poet, a stunning collection of poems that course with the rhythms of nature.A poet of piercing revelations and arresting imagery, Kumin is "unforgettable, indispensable" (New York Times Book Review). In And Short the Season she muses on mortality: her own and that of the earth. Always deeply personal, always political, these poems blend myth and modernity, fecundity and death, and the violence and tenderness of humankind.
