Poetry. In his wonderful new book Gary Young speaks in the confidential tones of someone alone with language, unconcerned with the figure he cuts in the reader's eyes and intent instead on bringing to life, with clarity and grace, the labors and loves that tie him to the world. Whether about picking mushrooms, building a chimney, facing up to pain, or planning a family, these sincere, unaffected poems emerge as labors of love in which work and imagination, grief and desire, body and soul are, for once, inseparable.
