Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. A Fine copy in a Near Fine price-clipped dust jacket. In "The Rescued Year" Stafford deepens both his technique and his autobiographical associations, especially in the twenty memory-pieces of the opening section. Here the influence of Life Studies is evident, . A calm austerity, careful naturalistic details, muted rhymes and flexible cadences singularly express a subdued moral pathos, an intermingling of past and present, a commentary on one's allegiances, hopes, doubts, defeats. Symbolist strains, as well as social and political attitudes, inform the book as a whole; but it is the recurring imagery of seasons, landscapes, and particular people which best signify Stafford's instinctively humane temperament, the genuineness of his concerns, the lovely integrity of his lines.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. A Fine tight copy in a Near Fine, price-clipped dust jacket. Canadian Review Slip laid-in. Stafford's poems are often deceptively simple. Like Robert Frost's, however, they reveal a distinctive and complex vision upon closer examination. Stafford's "natural mode of speech is a gentle, mystical, half-mocking and highly personal daydreaming about the western United States. This collection of 76 poems focuses on Stafford's uncanny ability to render the familiar into the unique with an extraordinary grouping of poems centered around American Indians and their tribal lore.
