In language as simple and powerful as the human muscle, these poems work individually and as a full-sequence meditation on the vulnerability of humanity.Marketing Plans: o National advertising o National media campaign o National and regional author appearances o Advance reader copies o Course adoption mailingLi-Young Lee burst onto the American literary scene with the publication of Rose, winner of the 1986 Delmore Schwartz Memorial Poetry Award from The Poetry Society of America.
