Pulitzer Prize Poetry Winner
Time and Materials
by Robert Hass
Summary
Hass gathers lyric observation, political reflection, and ecological attention into a wide-ranging meditation on what time makes and unmakes. His lines move easily between landscape, art, war, and intimate detail, modeling a discursive, essayistic mode of poetry. The book reflects a long-standing commitment to clarity, ethics, and the natural world.
