This Great Unknowing

<p><strong>When Denise Levertov died on December 20, 1997, she left behind forty finished poems, which now form her last collection, <em>This Great Unknowing</em>.</strong></p> Few poets have possessed so great a gift or so great a body of work―when she died at 74, she had been a published poet for more than half a century. The poems themselves shine with the artistry of a writer at the height of her powers.
