Ajouter au panierFIRST EDITIONS. Three separately published works. All in original bindings, as issued (see below). SECOND TWO WORKS SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR. Covers of "Judas" a little sunned, minor issues to other volumes (see below), but fine copies overall. James Wright (1927-80) was a Pulitzer Prize-winning poet known for lyrical verse that exp…lored themes of isolation, redemption, and the American Midwest. According to the Poetry Foundation, he has been "frequently referred to as one of America's finest contemporary poets. He was admired by critics and fellow poets alike for his willingness and ability to experiment with language and style, as well as for his thematic concerns." The three works in this collection span a large part of Wright's career and show the evolution of his style. 1) WRIGHT, JAMES; WILLIAM DUFFY, and ROBERT BLY. THE LION'S TAIL AND EYES.
