Description

Thom Gunn's The Man with Night Sweats is a masterful collection that showcases his unique voice and command of form. With classical precision and colloquial ease, Gunn tackles a wide range of themes, from intimate explorations to social commentary. This book ends with a powerful set of poems about the loss of friends to AIDS, which demonstrate Gunn's unflinching directness, compassion, and poetic skill. These moving statements offer a poignant reflection on the human experience during a time of great need. With 88 pages of thought-provoking poetry, The Man with Night Sweats is a significant work by one of the most respected poets of his generation.
