Whether in stark, haiku-like descriptions of a cancer ward, surrealistic depictions of a social order coming apart, or fluent, defiant outpourings of praise, Wiman pushes his language and forms until they break open, revealing startling new truths within. The poems are joyful and sorrowful at the same time, abrasive and beautiful, densely physical and credibly mystical. They attest to the human hunger to feel existence, even at its most harrowing, and the power of art to make our most intense experiences not only apprehensible but transfiguring.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChristian Wiman\u003c\/b\u003e, born and raised in West Texas, is the editor of \u003ci\u003ePoetry\u003c\/i\u003e and the author of two previous collections of poems, \u003ci\u003eHard Night\u003c\/i\u003e (2005) and \u003ci\u003eThe Long Home\u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003e (2007)\u003c\/i\u003e, and one collection of prose.
