Collected Early Poems of Robert Morgan -- Robert Morgan

<p>Robert Morgan's welcome <em>Collected Early Poems</em> presents in one volume the contents of his first four full-length books, which appeared in steady succession over the course of a decade. His remarkable debut, <em>Zirconia Poems</em>, was published by Lillabulero Press in 1969, when he was only twenty-four. A limited edition chapbook titled <em>The Voice in the Crosshairs</em> was brought out by the Angelfish Press in 1971; nearly all those poems (joined with many more) soon saw wider distribution as part of <em>Red Owl</em>, released by W. W. Norton in 1972. In 1976, LSU Press published <em>Land Diving</em>, which gathered the first poems Morgan wrote after starting what would become a fifty-year career teaching at Cornell University. L'Epervier Press issued <em>Trunk & Thicket</em> in 1978; its author was still only thirty-three, an age by which Walt Whitman, Robert Frost, and Wallace Stevens had yet to produce their first volumes.
