Add to basketPaperback. In Epilogue: Selected and Last Poems, Frederick Morgan reworks and amplifies, in his extraordinary poetic range, the fundamental human themes that preoccupied him-love, death, pain, the nature and transcendence of the Self. In interweaving his many themes, he recaptures the past, the confrontation with the external world of nature and the internal world of dream, the oppositions and ambiguities of body and spirit, and the reduplications of meaning in legend and fable. Assembled from eight previous collections, and including his final poems, this profoundly moving book transcends individual expression to provide a powerful insight into universal human experience. In his poems, Frederick Morgan explores the discovery, or recovery, of the true Self-the Self that abides within and survives the changes of time, memory, and circumstance. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
