Synopsis

In this perceptive debut collection, originally published in 1965 and long out of print, Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Lisel Mueller reveals the immense talent that would later bring her the highest literary honors. Now available for the first time in paperback, Dependencies affirms Mueller as a poet of control, precision, and feeling. Driven by the sense of life as process, these poems linger on the natural landmarks of human experience--those excursions into awareness that single out and illumine certain facets of growth, connection, creation, and decline. Mueller has commented that she does not "want to just put [her] poetry in a drawer." The reissue of this affecting first book brings her earliest work out of the bureau and into the bookstores for all to enjoy.
