Hayden Carruth's poetry is distinguished by the indelible presence of passion, compassion, and radical philosophy. Collected Longer Poems gathers the poet's choice of his narrative work and poems in sequence, including the meditative poems on the rural northeast that have made him the most accessible "regional" poet since Robert Frost. Carruth's renowned technical genius is perfectly matched to his ear for spoken language and narrative structure. His observations of life are by turns caustic and hilarious.
