Description

"Albert Goldbarth is . . . a contemporary genius with the language itself . . . There is simply no contemporary poet like him." ―David Baker, The Kenyon Review Now his, the only overhead turned on. Now nothing else existed: only him, and the book, and the light thrown over his shoulders as luxuriously as a cashmere shawl. ―from "Shawl" Albert Goldbarth has created an unmistakable signature style―learned, copious, hilarious, and heartbreaking―which has so far spanned an award-winning career of thirty-five years. The Kitchen Sink brings together forty new poems with a rich selection of earlier poetry, ranging from the brief, flickering lyric to the long, narrative sequence. In both forms, Goldbarth exerts a wild showmanship and an ever-widening scope to illustrate the complex character and interconnectedness of humanity, history, and art. The Kitchen Sink is the definitive book by one of America's most original and entertaining poets. Read more

  • Beautiful copy—exactly as advertised.
As advertised. Beautiful copy. Quick and efficient shipping (and very well packaged). Very impressed with this seller.

  • from modern love, to loss of spirituality
An extraordinary poet. Mixes total control of style and tone with (as the title promises!) the full range of issues, from modern love, to loss of spirituality, to science (and its effect on life), to death. You will get to know life much better if you read Goldbarth. And maybe even enjoy it more too. ... show more

  • It's easy to pick up and read in a quiet moment.
I don't read poetry cover to cover, as I do in prose. I would like to see this in an e-book so I could carry it around with me more easily. However, I think there aren't many poetry offerings in e-books because of the formatting that is so essential to poetry.

  • These poems!
My heart! This book was spellbinding ---I couldn't put it down! Full of emotion and mythology, I was hooked from page one. Checked it out from a library because I had only read one poem by Goldbarth before, but now I'm a true believer! Defintely need to buy this book.
