Scott Momaday considers himself primarily a poet. This first book of his poems to be published in over a decade, \u003cem\u003eAgain the Far Morning\u003c\/em\u003e comprises a varied selection of new work along with the best from his four earlier books of poems: \u003cem\u003eAngle of Geese\u003c\/em\u003e (1974), \u003cem\u003eThe Gourd Dancer\u003c\/em\u003e (1976), \u003cem\u003eIn the Presence of the Sun\u003c\/em\u003e (1992), and \u003cem\u003eIn the Bear's House\u003c\/em\u003e (1999).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo read Momaday's poems from the last forty years is to understand that his focus on Kiowa traditions and other American Indian myths is further evidence of his spectacular formal accomplishments. His early syllabic verse, his sonnets, and his mastery of iambic pentameter are echoed in more recent work, and prose poetry has been part of his oeuvre from the beginning. The new work includes the elegies and meditations on mortality that we expect from a writer whose career has been as long as Momaday's, but it also includes light verse and sprightly translations of Kiowa songs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFront Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis first book of Momaday's poems to be published in over a decade, \u003cem\u003eAgain the Far Morning\u003c\/em\u003e comprises a varied selection of new work along with the best from his four earlier books of poems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 152\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.35 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 01, 2013\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47505171316914,"sku":"9780826348432","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0770\/3891\/1666\/files\/Hhf2sVMhs89780826348432_431fb5bc-d076-4297-800c-8784de525c8a.jpg?v=1779524054","url":"https:\/\/box.dadyminds.org\/products\/again-the-far-morning-new-and-selected-poems-paperback","provider":"DADYMINDS BOX","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
