Life Watch — Barnstone '48
SKU: WBA339-Barnstone
By Willis Barnstone, Class of 1948, Honorary Degree 1981
Life Watch: A Circle of Ninety-One Nights is an ambitious sequence of poems that begins in childhood, moves through Barnstone’s adult years, and returns to youth. The poems engage and reflect on the civil wars that the author found himself in the midst of, Mexican orphanages, the cafes and arts salons in Paris, and walking with Borges. As the circles of these poems widen, they gather many perspectives on a life watched.
