Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. 1st Edition. FIRST LIGHT, Poems by David Wagoner, hardcover with unclipped dust jacket, stated first edition, 1983. BOOK CONDITION: near fine. The text block is in fine condition, with no tears, dogears, or marks. No bookplate but the name of a prior owner is printed at the top of the first free endpaper along with 35. Remainder mark across bottom edge. The wraps are in good condition (some edge crinkling and two small tears along edges). 8 1/2 x 5 ¾ , 114 pages, 11 ounces). [From the dust jacket] FIRST LIGHT will show David Wagoner's readers a new expression ? a poet whose concerns for nature and past history run parallel to those evinced in his previous twelve books of poetry, but whose treatment of his themes has developed a warmer and softer touch. FIRST LIGHT contains poems of childhood reminiscence, evoking Wagoner's Midwestern upbringing; poems of animals in the wild and in captivity; poems of myth, both fated and comic. The principal portion, however, is poems of self-discovery: various ways of experiencing the self, the delights of gardens and women, the exploration of life, and the natural wonders of the Pacific Northwest. This is Wagoner's biggest collection, his most varied, his most passionate. XX The author of ten novels and thirteen books of poetry, David Wagoner is Professor of English at the University of Washington, Editor of Poetry Northwest, and a Chancellor of the Academy of American Poets. He lives in Seattle with his wife, Robin. XX Wagoner's the partygoer who finds the beauty in the plain girl. Words that were dead on our tongues he resuscitates. He [studies] some taken-for-granted corner of life with a scientist's accuracy and then make[s] it dazzle with a shaman's skill (Albert Goldbarth). Wagoner is our Audubon ? abundant, various, and careful, yet repetitive as any good preacher (Dave Smith). A man who keeps our desire for independence alive and makes us less reluctant to accept ourselves (Richard Hugo). His study of American nostalgias is as eloquent and moving as that of James Wright, and like Wright's poetry carries on some of the deepest currents in American verse (Harold Bloom). Wagoner is both poet and born storyteller. To read him is to live in a larger world (X. J. Kennedy). Seller Inventory # 002081
