Landscape with Chainsaw: Poems - Paperback

by James Lasdun (Author)

An exuberant and bold series of poems drawing on the poet's life in the Catskill Mountains. Questions of exile and belonging figure prominently, as does the struggle to find a viable relationship with the natural world. In the chainsaw--the book's central image--all manner of human traits are reflected with an intense, often comical brilliance.
