Dear Ghosts Poems
Author: Tess Gallagher
The long-awaited and resplendent new poetry collection by Tess Gallagher, whose poems "are a gift of a poet's heart and soul to her readers" (Robert Coles) — Don’t sharpen them. — Expectation, more dangerous — than any blade. — —“Knives in the Borrowed House” — Fourteen years after Moon C...  more »—Tess Gallagher’s powerful elegies for her husband, Raymond Carver—Dear Ghosts, is the return of Gallagher’s unequivocal voice.

Here is the new work by one of America’s most accomplished poets.
