Poems of recollection and elegy commingle and conjoin with poems which address larger matters of historical and ecological import. The subjects of extinction and apocalypse figure prominently and obsessively in these pages, both in short lyrics and in several lengthy sequences. The poems also evidence the mastery of technique for which Wojahn is renowned, whether he is writing in fixed forms or in free verse. \u003ci\u003eFor the Scribe\u003c\/i\u003e is the most ambitious and searching collection thus far from a poet who has been a named finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in poetry, winner of the Lenore Marshall Prize from the Academy of American Poets, the O. B. Hardison Award from the Folger Shakespeare Library, and the William Carlos Williams Book Award.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Pittsburgh Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/13\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780822964544\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/20\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/15\/2017 pg. 15\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"David Wojahn","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42303860048053,"sku":"9780822964544","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_8eee4b8e-839b-4848-bbab-b7f8fc90a21f.jpg?v=1658842860","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/for-the-scribe-9780822964544","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
