His latest work, \u003ci\u003ePursuit of a Wound\u003c\/i\u003e, is marked by this acuity and by his uncanny ear for language as well as his willingness to speak for the unlucky and the dispossessed.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e Delving in equal measure into the flinty northern New England landscape and the exiled souls of ordinary people, \u003ci\u003ePursuit of a Wound \u003c\/i\u003emoves beyond Lea's previous work to explore new poetic strategies, including some that approach prose poetry. Combining a free-ranging sensibility akin to Whitman's with a keen attention to verse's formal possibilities, this collection of twenty-eight new poems evokes a beautiful and threatened place and ratifies Lea's status as heir-apparent to Robert Frost.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Sydney Lea","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53615946465660,"sku":"9780252068171","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0251\/4980\/0541\/files\/9780252068171_9b8b8239-426c-4ec4-86db-e173a978f8ea.jpg?v=1726049500","url":"https:\/\/combined-academic.myshopify.com\/products\/pursuit-of-a-wound","provider":"Combined Academic Publishers - Mare Nostrum Group","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
