Description
Sweet Will, Philip Levine's eleventh volume of poems, marks a transitional moment in his work. Published in 1985, it was seen as a subdued and thoughtful book that presaged the tone of much to come.
The poems in Sweet Will are set in various locations, including Detroit, California, New York, Europe, and the country of memory. They aim to bring overlooked events of daily life into focus, transcending the ordinary. This is a mid-career book composed by a poet who can now look back at his tempestuous life with tranquility.
The poems are beautiful and essential, including the long meditation "A Poem with No Ending", which spans over five hundred lines. Restored to print, Sweet Will will resonate with readers who appreciate Levine's earlier and later work.
