Quiet and moving, these poems combine an intimate voice with a searingly direct look at suffering and senseless violence, at human desire and love, and at man's relationship with nature. Revisiting themes explored in previous volumes, while expanding into previously uncharted territory, After the Others is evidence of Weigl at the height of his mature powers as an artist: in it is a world distinguished not only by its poetic craft but by Weigl's ability to establish and maintain a fresh angle of vision, providing a profound and accessible mapping of the inexplicable course of human life. |
