The Long Marriage: Poems

The Long Marriage: Poems

<p><strong>This luminous collection is Maxine Kumin's twelfth volume of poetry, the first since her remarkable memoir, <em>Inside the Halo</em>.</strong></p> Themes of loyalty, longevity, and recovery appear here, along with poems addressing the eminent dead: Wordsworth, Gorki, Rukeyser, and others. "Inescapably, many poems come up out of the earth I live on and tend to," Kumin says.
