<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><b>"Mason is a poet of admirable restraint, of multifaceted and sometimes riotous feeling made more poignant by being held firmly in check."--RORY WATERMAN, <i>Times Literary Supplement</i></b><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>In <i><b>The Sound</i></b> acclaimed poet David Mason collects his best shorter work of the past forty years, including lyrics like "Song of the Powers" and darkly brilliant narratives "The Collector's Tale" and "The Country I Remember," which Anthony Hecht called "a welcome addition to the best that is now being written by American poets." A poet of love and history and nature, Mason forges a language that can reconnect us to the world.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><li>Published by the Times Literary Supplement Antipodes</li><br><li>Featured in Australian Book Review </li><br><li><p>Featured in the Wall Street Journal</p><br><p>Link: https: //www.wsj.com/articles/hearing-homers-song-undying-melody-11620999349?st=dqo9rztbz7i2yz7&reflink=article_email_share</p><br><p>Featured in the "Poems On" podcast </p></li><p>Featured review in The Hudson Review</p><br><br>"Mason is a poet who justifies his claims.
