Stranger by Night: Poems Hirsch Edward
In his seventieth year, the award-winning poet looks back on what was and accepts what is, in a deeply moving and beautiful sequence about what sustains him--now in paperback.Beginning with My Friends Don't Get Buried, the lament of a delinquent mourner as his friends have begun to die, and ending with the plaintive note to self don't write elegies/anymore, Edward Hirsch takes us backward through the decades in these memory poems of startling immediacy. There are direct and indirect elegies to lost contemporaries like Mark Strand, William Meredith, and, most especially, his He recalls the black dress a lover wore when he couldn't yet know the tragedy of her burning spirit; the radiance of an autumn day in Detroit when his students smoked outside, passionately discussing Shelley; the day he got off late from a railyard shift and missed an antiwar demonstration.
