Now he pursues his aim by folding autobiography and memory into the thirty severe and fiercely truthful lyrics--poems presenting a constant tension between classi-cal repose and the friction of life--that make up this exuberant book.\u003cbr\u003eOn being awarded the Rome Fellowship in Literature from the American Academy of Arts and Letters, Henri Cole received the following citation: \u003cbr\u003e\"In a poetry nervously alive to the maladies of the contemporary, yet suffused by a rare apprehension of the delights of the senses, Henri Cole has relished the world while being unafraid to satirize it. In poems that are both decorative and plain-spoken he permits his readers to share a keen and unsentimental view of the oddities, horrors, and solaces surrounding them at the end of the twentieth century.\"\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Knopf","offers":[{"title":"Visible Man: Poems | Henri Cole | Hardcover | 0375403965 | Used: Very Good | Back Stacks E 1760921","offer_id":49229582270616,"sku":"1760921","price":11.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/91Wz1n45XhL.jpg?v=1781219279","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/visible-man-poems","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
