Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for PoetryFeatured on NPR\'s Fresh Air and The NewsHour with Jim Lehrer on PBS.Honored as one of the Best Books of the Year from Publishers Weekly.A collection of luminous, often tender poems that focus on the profound power of memory. --Pulitzer Prize CommitteeIn his personal anonymity, his strict individuated manner, his defense of the earth, and his heartache at time\'s passing, Merwin has become instantly recognizable on the page; he has made for himself that most difficult of creations, an accomplished style. --Helen Vendler, The New York Review of BooksMerwin is one of the great poets of our age.--Los Angeles Times Book Review The Shadow of Sirius is] the very best of all Merwin: I have been reading William since 1952, and always with joy. --Harold Bloom Merwin\'s] best book in a decade--and one of the best outright...
