Snow and sunshine, barns and cornfields and cars on the empty nighttime roads, abandoned Minnesota lakes and the mood of America now--these are his materials. He sees and talks clearly: he uses no rhetoric nor mannered striving for effect, but instead the simple statement that in nine lines can embody a mood, reveal a profound truth, illuminate in an important way the inward and hidden life. This is a poet of the modern world, thoroughly aware of the complexities of the moment but equally mindful of the great stream of life--all life--of which mankind is only a part. 410 0$aWesleyan Poetry Series 606 $aAmerican poetry$y20th century 615 0$aAmerican poetry 676 $a811.54 700 $aBly$b Robert$01165192 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 801 2$bAzTeS 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910811267903321 996 $aSilence in the snowy fields$93988398 997 $aUNINA
