The volume presents over one hundred poems from earlier collections alongside forty--seven poems previously unavailable in book form. Throughout his body of work, Rogoff skillfully interweaves craft and feeling as he contemplates immigrant ancestors, foreign adventures, baseball, ballet, and the uncanny entwinings of art and life. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The new poems form three sharply etched sequences. In turn, Rogoff presents a series of short, wry poems in tribute to his wife and muse; re-imagines Genesis's story of the creation and fall in a progression of enigmatic ballads inspired by Lorenzo Maitani's reliefs on the fa ade of Orvieto Cathedral; and expands upon a theme that has always suffused his art, the interconnectedness of love and death. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Both a valuable compendium of his finest work and a powerful introduction to his range of gifts, \u003ci\u003eLoving in Truth\u003c\/i\u003e offers a thorough immersion in the poetry of Jay Rogoff.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJay Rogoff\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of six previous collections of poetry, including \u003ci\u003eThe Art of Gravity\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eVenera\u003c\/i\u003e.
