Love About Love

Poetry. In LOVE ABOUT LOVE, C. K. Williams has created a wholly new context for poems written over a lifetime. Culled from all of his previous collections, the poems have been reorganized by the author, sometimes radically, into a sequence that throws startling fresh light on them. With his characteristic intensity and directness, Williams explores the many faces of his subject -- passion, affection, sexuality, loneliness, jealousy, loss -- in poems remarkable for their range and ingenuity. LOVE ABOUT LOVE is an unsentimental and unsparing self-assessment by a poet writing at the height of his powers, a vital study of the evolution of a consciousness that is truth-telling, passionate, and profound. REPAIR, the most recent book by Williams, won the 2000 Pulitzer Prize; he has been a Guggenheim Fellow and a Lila Wallace Fellow, has twice received a National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship, and has received numerous other awards. LOVE ABOUT LOVE is also available in hardcover from SPD.Williams, C. K. is the author of 'Love About Love' with ISBN 9780967266831 and ISBN 0967266831.
