Sinopsis

With an economy of line and focus on nature that has deep roots in the New England traditions of Thoreau and Robert Frost, Philip Booth writes poetry that evokes crystalline images of sea, woods, and fields and explores the timeless themes of love, uncertainty, and responsibility. With many of Booth's early works now out of print, Lifelines presents a unique opportunity to become reacquainted with one of the major voices in contemporary American poetry.

De la contraportada

In the long shadow of Robert Frost -- at whose feet he literally sat as a student -- Philip Booth speaks from a deep-rooted sense of place, of how one lives and finds oneself among others, and of otherness. Lifelines brings together resonances from fifty years' writing -- not least his love of Thoreau -- and includes a significant number of new, previously unpublished poems. His poems have appeared in most of the major journals in this country and have been widely anthologized. From lyrics of sea, woods, and fields to lines on love, uncertainty, and responsibility, this is a monumental opus from a master of descriptive metaphor.
