<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong>Winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature</strong></p><p><strong>In <em>Vita Nova</em>, Pulitzer-Prize winning poet Louise Glück manages the apparently impossible: a terrifying act of perspective that brings into resolution the smallest human hope and the vast forces that shape and thwart it</strong></p><p>Since <em>Ararat </em>in 1990, Louise Glück has been exploring a form that is, according to the poet, Robert Hass, her invention. <em>Vita Nova--</em>like its immediate predecessors, a booklength sequence--combines the ecstatic utterance of <em>The Wild Iris</em> with the worldly dramas elaborated in <em>Meadowlands. Vita Nova </em>is a book that exists in the long moment of spring: a book of deaths and beginnings, resignation and hope; brutal, luminous, and far-seeing.</p><p>Like late Yeats, <em>Vita Nova</em> dares large statement. By turns stern interlocutor and ardent novitiate, Glück compasses the essential human paradox. In <em>Vita Nova, </em>Louise Glück manages the apparently impossible: a terrifying act of perspective that brings into resolution the smallest human hope and the vast forces that thwart and shape it.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>The book exists at the vanishing point of light. What's left is not darkness, but the amniotic of soul, and hence the title, <em>Vita Nova</em>, new life.--<strong><em>BookForum</em></strong><br>
