Blood, Tin, Straw: Poems Paperback - 1999 - 1st Edition
by Sharon Olds
A new collection of intensely powerful poems by the New York State Poet Laureate and National Book Critics Circle Award-winning author of "The Dead and the Living" and "The Wellspring."
From the jacket flap
From Sharon Olds--a stunning new collection of poems that project a fresh spirit, a startling energy of language and counterpoint, and a moving, elegiac tone shot through with humor.
From poems that erupt out of history and childhood to those that embody the nurturing of a new generation of children and the transformative power of marital love, Sharon Olds takes risks, writing boldly of physical, emotional, and spiritual sensations that are seldom the stuff of poetry. These are poems that strike for the heart, as Sharon Olds captures our imagination with unexpected wordplay, sprung rhythms, and the disquieting revelations of ordinary life. Writing at the peak of her powers, this greatly admired poet gives us her finest collection.
