Sadness and Happiness Author:Robert Pinsky "Remarkable. . . . What [these poems] are attempting is important: nothing less than the recovery for language of a whole domain of mute and familiar experience."--Hugh Kenner, ^IThe Los Angeles Times Book Review^N "It is refreshing to find a poet who is intellectually interesting and technically first-rate. Robert Pinsky belongs to that rarest ... more »category of talents, a poet- critic."--Robert Lowell "The pleasures of Pinsky . . . are the unfashionable, or at least the unfamiliar, ones of sanity, the cool entertainment of alternatives, and the conviction . . . that speech . . . is not only interesting but shares with both lyric and nonsense a certainty of resonance. . . ."--Richard Howard, ^IPoetry^N« less
