Parini, as seen in his previous works of poetry\u003ci\u003eAnthracite Country\u003c\/i\u003e (1982), \u003ci\u003eTown Life\u003c\/i\u003e (1988), and \u003ci\u003eHouse of Days\u003c\/i\u003e (1998)has created a remarkable voice of his own. \u003ci\u003eThe Art of Subtraction: New and Selected Poems\u003c\/i\u003e is a testament to Parini's unique poetic style and constantly evolving vision. A compilation of fifty-nine new poems and forty-three from previous collections, \u003ci\u003eThe Art of Subtraction\u003c\/i\u003e demonstrates Parini's wide range of poetic registers. One sequence of poems responds to the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Others deal with personal themes and continue Parini's ongoing exploration of the relationship between language and mind. The poems drawn from previous collections have been carefully chosen to represent the breadth of his work and of his experience as an American poet over the course of his career.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"George Braziller Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Art of Subtraction: New and Selected Poems | Jay Parini | Hardcover | 9780807615478 | Used: Like New | Poetry 1657099","offer_id":50780807397634,"sku":"1657099","price":23.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/3327\/5906\/files\/51tVxllAjoL.jpg?v=1792203022","url":"https:\/\/boswellsbooks.com\/products\/art-of-subtraction-new-and-selected-poems","provider":"Boswell's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
