Description
Poet Debra Allbery examines Charles Wright’s work for its craft and for the ways in which it models a kind of poetic and spiritual vocation. Focusing on how visual artists such as Morandi and Cezanne, and Chinese landscape painters and poets such as Wang Wei, influenced Wright, Allbery argues that Wright’s poems show us how close attention to image and landscape can allow the poet, and the poem, to move beyond the restrictive bounds of the self and open a larger perspective.
