Stray Birds

Poems responding to the everyday miracles and paradoxes of life, in language that is honed, spare, full of plainspoken insight. This is award-winning poetry (Robin is winner of the Iowa Poetry Prize) that tacks toward simplicity. Its depths, like those of the experienced world, are implicit. This poetry follows the basic mission of all poetry to express the inexpressible. Robin illuminates the mystery and beauty (and awkwardness) of existence with a breathtaking command of moment, gesture, and the simplest of words.
