In Beauty Bright: Poems

“Gerald Stern is the most expansively celebratory poet in years. He is akin to a natural force.” —Georgia Review

The lyric poems of In Beauty Bright, although marked by the same passion and swiftness as Gerald Stern’s previous work, move into an area of knowledge — even wisdom — that reflects a long life of writing, teaching, and activism. They are poems of grief and anger, but the music is delicate and moving.
