Throughout her life Moore arranged and rearranged  visited and revisited  a large majority of her existing poetry  always adding new work interspersed among revised poems. This makes sorting out the complex textual history that she left behind a pressing task if we mean to represent her work as a poet in a way that gives us a complete picture. New Collected Poems offers an answer to the question of how to represent the work of a poet so skillful and singular  giving a portrait of the range of her voice and of the modernist culture she helped create.  William Carlos Williams  remarking on the impeccable precision of Moores poems  praised the aesthetic pleasure engendered when pure craftsmanship joins hard surfaces skillfully. It is only in New Collected Poems that we can understand her later achievements  see how she refashioned her earlier work  and get a more complete understanding of her consummate craftsmanship  innovation  and attention to detail. Presented and collected by Heather Cass White  the foremost scholar of Moores work  this new collection at last allows readers to experience the untamed force of these dazzling poems as the author first envisioned them.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45279856033845,"sku":"ByrdShop_0374221049","price":31.84,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780374221041.jpg?v=1780613922","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/new-collected-poems-9780374221041","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
