For nearly half a century Jared Carter has been quietly mapping the American heartland. Line by line, his poetry has shown us the landscape, sounded the voices, conjured the music, and tested the silence of the everchanging and yet everconstant Midwest that figures so prominently in the American story. And yet what we find in Carters poetry is endlessly new. Here, in poems selected from his first five books, is the summerlong buzz of the cicada and the crack of the cue ball, the young rebel on his big Harley, and the YMCA secretary who backstrokes her way across the indoor pool. Here, too, are thirty new poems in fixed form that illustrate Carters continued quest for a poetry of universal interest. Taken together, these selections are, truly, poetry in the American grain.
