Hailed as indispensable (David Wojahn), Stephen Dunn masterfully shifts between the metaphysical and the ironic, never wavering in his essential honesty. His graceful poems confront our contradictions with tenderness and wit, enliven the ordinary with penetrating observation, and alert us to the haunting wonders and relationships that surround us. Drawing from eleven crystalline volumes, The Not Yet Fallen World is arranged to further Dunn' s signature themes: mortality, morality, and the roles we play in the essential human comedy of getting through each day. This final collection captures the breadth of an acclaimed poet' s achievement, a poetic expanse suffused with fearless generosity and perceptive wisdom. From The Widening there' s no such thing as a full stop in music? silence is a sound, an afterlife for anyone with an ear.
Stephen Dunn (1939-2021) was the author of nineteen poetry collections, including the Pulitzer Prize-winning Different Hours. He was a distinguished professor emeritus at Richard Stockton University and received an Academy Award in Literature from the American Academy of Arts and Letters, among many other honors.
