Description

Winner of the Pulitzer Prize, Delights & Shadows is proof positive that poetry need not be forbidding, difficult, or intentionally obscure. Ted Kooser draws inspiration from the overlooked details of daily life–a pegboard, creamed corn, and a forgotten salesman’s trophy help reveal the remarkable in what can sometimes appear to be an ordinary world. Here is a poet who works toward clarity and accessibility so that each distinctive poem appears as fresh, bright, and spontaneous as a good watercolor painting. Kooser is a haiku-like imagist with aching wisdom infusing his poems. -- from publisher's website.
