As he considers his mortality  the poet finds a new elation and clarity on the page  handing over for our examination the flawed yet kneeling-in-gratitude self he has become. F stands both for Franz  the poet-speaker who represents all of us on our baffling lifelong journeys  and for the alphabet  the utility and sometimes brutality of our symbols. (It may be  he jokes grimly  his grade in life.) From Entries of the Cell  the long central poem that details the loneliness of the single soul  to short narrative prose poems and traditional lyrics  Wright revels in the compensatory power of language  observing the daytime headlights following a hearse  or the wind  blessing one by one the unlighted buds of the backbent peach trees unnoted return. He is at his best in this beautiful and startling collection.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67920895115317,"sku":"ByrdShop_0307701581","price":348.23,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780307701589.jpg?v=1794064207","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/f-poems-9780307701589","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
