New Collected Poems por George Oppen
I don't know if I would be a different person if I never read George Oppen, but ever since I was introduced to his poetry, I turn to it all the time. The way I feel about certain poems of his is probably similar to the way my Christian sister feels about certain Psalms.
Oppen's eye is unparalleled. His meditations come from deep looking, penetrating the layer of essence to discover the multiplicities of being which lie beneath. His series "Of Being Numerous" is one of the most important poetic pieces of the 20th century. Here's a quoteThere are thingswe live amongand to see themis to know ourselves.
