New selected poems

Frederick Seidel has been hailed as 'the poet of a new contemporary form' (New York Review of Books), and 'the most frightening American poet ever' (Boston Review). His ambitious, disturbing and tender work has mystified and captured critics, poets and readers for decades. This volume allows readers to appreciate the scope of Seidel's work over the past half-century and his uncanny ability to say the unsayable.
