Bøger af Rex Wilder

Rex Wilder's second collection introduces the world to a new form, inspired by Richard Wilbur: the boomerang, a four-line nouveau haiku that aims for permanence in an evanescent world.

The collected poetry of Rex Wilder, whose passion for rhyme and rhymes of passion have long set him apart as a unique presence in contemporary American poetry. In addition to collecting Wilder's previously published work, Open Late includes some 100 works never before published. The two-term U.S. Poet Laureate Billy Collins said this of Rex's first book, Waking Bodies, the poems of which are included in this volume:"In Rex Wilder's poetry, the tired English of everyday use comes back to us refreshed and full of its original surprise. In a world glutted with poetry, that Wilder has found a new way to say the old things is a notable achievement."
