First Edition, Second Printing "In the long shadow of Robert Frost - at whose feet he literally sat as a student - Philip Booth speaks from a deep-rooted sense of place, of how one lives and finds oneself among others, and of otherness. Lifelines brings together resonances from fifty years' writing - not least his love of Thoreau - and includes a significant number of new, previously unpublished poems. His poems have appeared in most of the major journals in this country and have been widely anthologized. From lyrics of sea, woods, and fields to lines on love, uncertainty, and responsibility, this is a monumental opus from a master of descriptive metaphor" [from the dust jacket] ISBN: 0670882879 Book is in Fine/As New Condition: pages bright, clean, tight, and unmarked.
