The Center of the Circle

0/5 ( ratings)

In this volume, which introduces a poet of power and skill, Mr. Noll deals with great themes rising out of the contemplation of man, his daily life, his relationships, and his ultimate destiny. It is not surprising therefore that the elegiac mode, with its insistence on the common fact of mortality, is much in evidence or that the small joys and beauties of existence take on an exquisite poignancy. Among the other major elements in his work are a moral preoccupation with the human craving for illusion --yet also for knowing; with the nature of serenity and gentleness; and with the acts of the imagination.

Language: English

Pages: 57
