Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. For thirty years, the late Thomas McGrath labored over his narrative epic poem, Letter to an Imaginary Friend, first publishing Part One in 1963, and finishing with Part Four in 1985. All previous editions of the individual parts contained errors which the poet intended to correct in a definitive edition. Now, working from McGrath's archival notes, his longtime friend and colleague Dale Jacobson has prepared an authoritative text of the whole poem, making available for the first time in a single volume the greatest epic of our time. Both modern and Homeric, McGrath's expansive, inclusive, semi-autobiographical Letter explores American history, politics, and mythology, guided by the Blue Star Kachina of Hopi mythology as it moves toward the poem's conclusion in the American heartland on Christmas Eve, crisscrossing the landscape in what Library Journal has called a tremendous odyssey of sense and spirit.…

Paperback. Zustand: Fair. Eleanor Wilner's sixth collection creates a mythology that sees a planet too small and a universe too immense to support humanity's illusions of importance. Her poems become a "choral work of the imagination" in which science is re-envisioned, gender assumptions challenged and beliefs rigorously questioned. As the old gods are reabsorbed into the modern world, Wilner discovers new insights into culture and the human psyche. "I have always treasured Wilner's poetry for its visionary amplitude and revolutionary intelligence."--Alicia Ostriker Eleanor Rand Wilner is the author of six books of poetry and the recipient of a MacArthur Fellowship. She lives in Philadelphia, teaches at Warren Wilson College, and is a lifelong activist for civil rights and peace.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. In this, her third collection of poems, Eleanor Wilner revises a number of our culture's central myths; invoking figures as diverse as Briar Rose and Miriam the Prophet, she casts upon their stories, and choices, an enlivening feminist perspective. "There is so much that is impressive in Wilner's mature poems. In an era which has been labelled 'The End of History,' she examines history's less obvious lessons. If the past is to teach us, she seems to say, then we must re-invent and re-shape it."--Poetry.…
