The Essential M. S. Merwin and Before
W. S. Merwin
A iconic American poet — though often not anthologized — W. S. Merwin wrote across six decades, until his death at age 91. In the mid-1970s, he moved to Hawaii, became a serious student of Buddhism, and turned his attention to environmental issues. His poetry continued to evolve, though still employing a rich palette of images to guide readers to his thoughts. Join Leigh E. Rich, P. T. Bridgeport, and Dr. Carol Andrews as they explore Merwin’s later life and themes through a selection of poems.
