About

Sestets is the book from one of the country's most acclaimed poets, a masterpiece of formal rigor and a profound meditation on nature and mortality. It is yet another virtuosic showcase for Charles Wright's acclaimed descriptive powers, and also, an inquiry into the nature of description itself, both seductive and dangerous: "a virtual world/ Unfit for the virtuous."

Reviews

"If Nature is a haunted house, as Emily Dickinson told us, and Art a house that tries to be haunted, then Wright has created in Littlefoot one of the most satisfyingly possessed landscapes of his career . . . Inside his lyric, there resides a world well beyond the ordinary . . . It is the heart and soul that he delivers so eloquently."
Thomas Curwen, The Los Angeles Times, on Littlefoot:
