About this ebook
These three books--Body Rags, Mortal Acts, Mortal Words, and The Past--are central to the life's work of one of the masters of contemporary poetry. Published here in one volume, they include many of Galway Kinnell's best loved and most anthologized poems. In a note, Galway Kinnell comments on the numerous revisions he has made to many of the poems for this edition.
About the author
GALWAY KINNELL (1927–2014) was a MacArthur Fellow and state poet of Vermont. In 1982 his Selected Poems won the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Award.
