Whole Motion: Collected Poems 1945-1992 $150.00
Hanover, MD: Wesleyan University Press (1992)
For over three decades, James Dickey has been one of the nation’s most important poets and a prominent man of letters. The Eagle’s Mile, his most recent volume, was a triumphant success, a bold and innovative departure from his traditional verse. The New York Times declared, “Dickey continues to extend his vision as a major American poet”, while Fred Chappell, himself a Bollingen Prize winner, wrote, “If there were a literary prize for Poetry That Has Shown Real Moxie, it ought to go to The Eagle’s Mile”. Now, The Whole Motion collects Dickey’s oeuvre into a single volume: 235 poems, ranging from his first book, Into the Stone, through the prize-winning Buckdancer’s Choice, to The Eagle’s Mile, as well as a selection of previously uncollected and unpublished “apprentice” works gathered under the title “Summons”. The Whole Motion documents the development of a major literary figure, one who has greatly influenced a younger generation of poets; it illuminates the evolution of one of the finest poetic sensibilities of our times.
