Book Overview
Galway Kinnell's twelfth book of poems is powerful and thrilling. Imperfect Thirst includes beautiful love poems and approaches elemental subjects with a remarkable balance of good nature and holy dread: recollections of childhood, snapshots of impassive cruelty, reflections on art and nature. This energetic collection will prove once again why Galway Kinnell is one of America's masters of the art.

Something about Galway Kinnell makes you see death for what it is and find peace in that acceptance. His poems characterize the modern push for speed and excess as a search for stillness or contentment. I love the collection.
