Résumé

A remarkable late-in-life collection, elegiac and bracing, from master poet Jack Gilbert, whose Refusing Heaven captivated the poetry world and won the National Book Critics Circle Award as well as the Los Angeles Times Book Prize.

We get illuminating glimpses of the poet's background and childhood, in poems like "Going Home" (his mother the daughter of sharecroppers, his father the black sheep in a family of rich Virginia merchants) and "Summer at Blue Creek, North Carolina, " a classic scene of pulling water from the well, sounding the depths. The title of the collection is drawn from the startling "Ovid in Tears, " in which the poet figure has fallen and is carried out, muttering faintly: "White stone in the white sunlight .
