This review is from: The Collected Poetry of Robinson Jeffers: Volume Five Textual Evidence and Commentary (Hardcover)
The Selected Poetry Of Robinson JeffersWhen I was a college student at the University of Iowa Writer's workshop, we studied Robinson Jeffers as the voice of the future. I loved these poems with all my heart and wished that I could somehow write what I saw in this prophetic and beautiful way. What we have in Robinson Jeffers is a poet, who not only could envision the future, but one who could take all the nature around him and make you long for his earth, his sky, his water. Do we have a poet these days who is as unafraid to confront the real issues of our time in the same way. We need such poets desperately. I hope all who want to look at this beautiful earth and preserve it will revisit this man's poetry. In it they will find solace, freedom and occasionally honest joy, and they will also see why they need to look around them, find what they can do to help, and DO IT!
