Description: Be sure to add me to your favorites list Woman and the Sea: Selected Poems by Michael Mott, LN Book of Poetry. This is actually a NEW and unread book, just with tiny remnants of a sticker on it, so I have it listed as like new. Poetry. Michael Mott's poems are strong in all the qualities that make good poetry: formal beauty, wise sense, and well-drawn imagery. He speaks to and for our time, from deep wells of history, with a firm understanding that the present is always an experience of the past-Guy Davenport. In this extensive selection, Mott tempers dense, often historical or literary subject matter with a Joycean ear for living language: to scream in the mosquitoes' wail or burn aglow / in fireflies crossing now the wastes you know / cool lids of twilight Chickamauga's risen trees (Chickamauga). As George Garrett writes in his introduction, There is a subtle and diverse music playing in all these poems, a rich virtuosity (occasionally elaborate) of end rhymes and internal rhymes, masculine and feminine, and echoes. Mott was born in London in 1930, and currently lives in Williamsburg, Virginia Thanks for looking! Check out my Ebay Store!
