<p><strong>"<em>Fire to Fire</em> should solidify Doty's position as a star of contemporary American poetry. . . . The poems combine close attention to the fragile, contingent things of the world with the constant, almost unavoidable chance of transcendence." -- <em>Publishers Weekly</em></strong><strong><br/></strong></p><p><strong>A landmark collection of new and published works by one of our finest poets that is a testament to the clarity and thoughtful lyricism of his poems</strong></p> <p><em>Fire to Fire </em>collects the best works from seven books of poetry by Mark Doty, acclaimed poet and <em>New York Times</em> bestselling author of two memoirs, <em>Firebird</em> and <em>Dog Years.</em></p><p>Doty's subjects--our mortal situation, the evanescent beauty of the world, desire's transformative power, and art's ability to give shape to human lives--echo and develop across twenty years of poems. His signature style encompasses both the plainspoken and the artfully wrought; here one of contemporary American poetry's most lauded, recognizable voices speaks to the crises and possibilities of our times.<br/></p>
