Early Collected Poems

by Gerald Stern

*Early Collected Poems* gathers the poems from the first six books of Gerald Stern’s body of work. A master poet, Stern has sought new language for the overlooked, neglected, and unseen facets of human experience. Whether writing about modern poets, Hebrew prophets, death, war, or love, “Stern’s literary songs are sharp, surprising, and unerring in their delivery” ([*Ploughshares*][1], Editor’s Choice).
