Description

The Groundswell Moving, winner of the Branton New Voices Prize, sees David Augustus Robertson tell the story of his family in terms that are both celebratory and elegiac. In each poem, Robertson carefully locates the complicated tensions and allegiances of both our public postures and our intimate selves. In long, rugged, and occasionally Whitmanesque poems, Robertson combines a sweeping pace with a sharp eye for detail. This is a tender and exhilerating first book.
