About this book

Flesh & Blood: Poems by Williams, C. K.. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780374520908.

Flesh and Blood, the fifth collection by C. K. Williams, was awarded the 1987 National Book Critics Circle Award for Poetry. Reviewing it in The New York Times Book Review, Edward Hirsch noted that the books compression and exactitude gave it "the feeling of a contemporary sonnet sequence." Hirsch added: "Like Berrymans Dream Songs or Lowells Notebooks, Mr. Williamss short poems are shapely yet open-minded and self-generative, loosely improvisational though with an underlying formal necesity."
