As noted by the Poetry Foundation Carruth's writing is "characterized by a calm tightly controlled and relatively 'plain' language that belies the intensity of feeling behind the words." The present seven works offered as a group represent more than 30 years of his long literary career. The poetry in these volumes is both gritty and playful inspired by nature country living and jazz as well as Carruth's own personal experiences and struggles with alcoholism anxiety and abandonment. As indicated by the inscriptions given below these works all come from the collection of Laure-Anne Bosselaar b. 1943 and her husband Kurt Brown 1944-2013. Bosselaar is a Belgian-American poet translator and editor who has published numerous works of poetry in multiple languages including five collections of her own works. She has been given various prizes and recognitions Pushcart Isabella Gardner Breadloaf and was named Poet Laureate of Santa Barbara in 2019. Sometimes publishing jointly with Bosselaar Brown was also a prolific poet and editor of anthologies as well as the founder of the Aspen Writer's Conference playing a pivotal role in shaping its early vision and establishing Aspen as a literary center. Hayden Carruth and his poet wife Joe-Anne McLaughlin Carruth were good friends of Bosselaar and Brown and the couples would spend time together when visiting their respective cities. Joe-Anne and Bosselaar also gave readings together in the late 1990s and early 2000s.<br /> <br /> 1 NOTHING FOR TIGERS.
