In eight extraordinary volumes spanning five decades, Ellen Bryant Voigt has created a body of work distinguished by its formal precision, rigorous intelligence, and meticulous observation of nature, history, and domestic life. From the subtly evocative images of Claiming Kin (1976) to the mosaic of sonnets and voices conjuring a prescient narrative of the 1918 influenza pandemic in Kyrie (1995) to fierce encounters with mortality in the National Book Award finalist Shadow of Heaven (2002) and the propulsive inventions of Headwaters (2013), the evolution of Voigt's astonishing creative and technical mastery is on full display. This definitive collection showcases the brilliant career of "a quintessential American elegist" (Katy Didden, Kenyon Review).From "Apple Tree"O my soul,it is not a small thing,to have made from three,this one, this one life.
Over nearly fifty years, Eleanor Ross Taylor has established herself as one of the foremost southern poets of her generation. Captive Voices gathers selections from Taylor's five previous books along with a generous helping of new poems.
"Genius. Voigt is a poet of knowledge, and knowledge in the living, messy world."-Robert Pinsky, Washington Post Book World

A meticulously crafted new volume from the acclaimed American poet whom the Washington Post Book World called a "genius."
"Voigt's language dares to stir the dead, to remind us that we are temporary survivors."-Geoffrey Wolff
The fourth of Ellen Bryant Voigt's collections of poems. Within the structure of the volume are three sets of musical "variations", each illuminating some aspect of the longer poems and fusing with the studies of beauty, art and the instability of perception.
