In 1995  Stanley Kunitz received the National Book Award in Poetry for Passing Through: The Later Poems  New and Selected. The citation for the award read in part: \"In his genius  great clarity is joined to great generosity. His work shines with humanity  humor  precision  and passion.\" Now  combining both early and later poems  including Selected Poems (which won the Pulitzer Prize)  Kunitz presents us with the gift of his lifes work in poetry. The early poems  long unavailable in any edition  sound themes that have always engaged Kunitz: lifes meaning  the relation of time to eternity  kinship with nature  and loss  most poignantly that of his father. Despite the power of his poems about loss  Kunitz ardently celebrates life. Perpetually curious  eager for fresh revelations  he fully lives up to his own advice to younger poets \"to persevere  then explore. Be explorers all your life.\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44946718556213,"sku":"ByrdShop_0393050300","price":26.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780393050301.jpg?v=1769963001","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-collected-poems-of-stanley-kunitz","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
