Crossing to Sunlight Revisited New and Selected Poems

Crossing to Sunlight Revisited offers both a retrospective and a current look at the work of Paul Zimmer. It contains, as Zimmer writes, "a total of seventy-three poems, one for each of the years I have lived." Twenty-three of the poems were not included in Zimmer's previous career-spanning work, Crossing to Sunlight. Being a poet, says Zimmer, is "perhaps the only courageous thing" he has done in his life. Here is a generous measure of that courage, of that body of work that once moved Robert Olen Butler to write, "I turn again and again to Zimmer's poetry to remind myself what the essence of all literary art is: the moment."
