Overview
C.K. Williams (1936-2015) was the most challenging American poet of his generation, a poet of intense and searching originality who makes lyric sense out of the often brutal realities of everyday life. Over three decades, Williams has claimed as his own a world of startling anecdotes and complex inner states, rendered in precise, daring language, which Repair brings to a new pitch of intensity. His subjects, again, are love, death, secrets among intimates, the waywardness of thought, and the violence and metaphoric power of the natural world. A long poem about the sixties, King, broods over the mixed motives and misunderstandings of the period, while the book's final poem defines, and in its way celebrates, the 'invisible mending' of time. Repair won the Pulitzer Prize in the US, was a PBS Recommendation and was shortlisted for the T.S. Eliot Prize.
