Atwood, in her journey through poetry, illuminates our most innate joys and sorrows, desires and fears.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSpanning six decades of work—from her earliest beginnings to brand-new poems—this volume charts the evolution of one of our most iconic and necessary authors.“Trenchant, poignant, archly funny, lacerating, and formally fluent, Atwood’s incandescent poems address the timeless and the now, the wild and the cultivated, the radiant and the tragic. A prodigious literary treasure.”\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e —\u003ci\u003eBooklist, \u003c\/i\u003estarred\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“A grand showcase. . . .
