The Branch Will Not Break: Poems (Wesleyan Poetry Series)

The Branch Will Not Break: Poems (Wesleyan Poetry Series)

These new poems by the author of Saint Judas and The Green Wall embody a sharp break with his earlier work. Their impact is well described by the British critic Michael Hamburger: â€œHe has absorbed the work of modern Spanish and other continental poets and evolved a medium of his own. This medium dispenses with argument and rhetoric, and presents the pure substance of poetry, images which are â€˜the objective correlativesâ€™ of emotion and feeling. It is only in the new collection that Wright has found this wholly distinctive voice.â€

Mr. Wright is well known for his previous books and his contributions to virtually every literary journal of importance. His numerous honors include a Fullbright fellowship, a Kenyon Review fellowship, and many other prizes and awards.
