Poems Seven: New and Complete Poetry, the winner of the National Book Award, presents the life work of a giant of American letters, tracks a forty-year career of honest, tough artistry, and shows a man at nearly 80 years of age and still at the height of his poetic power.

Dugans new poems continue his career-long concerns with renewed vigor: the poets insistence that art is a grounded practice threatened by pretension, the wry wit, the jibes at the academic and sententious, and the arresting observations on the quotidian battles of life.

All the while he peppers his poems with humorous images of the grim and daunting topics of existential emptiness.
