This superb Pulitzer Prize-winning collection gives voice to failure with a wry, deft touch from one of this country's most engaging and uncompromising poets. In "Failure", Philip Schultz evokes the pleasures of family, marriage, beaches, and dogs; New York City in the 1970s; revolutions both interior and exterior; and the terrors of 9/11 with a compassion that demonstrates he is a master of the bittersweet and fierce, the wondrous and direct, and the brilliantly provocative. Filled with poems of "heart-breaking tenderness that [go] beyond mere pity" (Gerald Stern), "Failure" is a collection to savor from this major American poet.Schultz, Philip is the author of 'Failure ', published 2007 under ISBN 9780156031288 and ISBN 0156031280.
