Devestating and Beautiful

Orr's collection here covers his entire body of work, from the brilliant Burning the Empty Nests to more recent, unpublished work, in an edition that is top notch in every way. Check out Orr's nonfiction writing as well: both The Blessing and Poetry as Survival are must-reads for those interested in the artistic process and the significant meaning that poetry can have in our daily lives. Stunning.
