Out of print since 1987, his book \u003ci\u003eThe Revisionist\u003c\/i\u003e has still been enough in some opinions to establish him as one of the most important poets of his generation; on its strength, says the Oxford Book of American Poetry, rests a formidable underground reputation. Now, by combining \u003ci\u003eThe Revisionist\u003c\/i\u003e with Crase's chapbook \u003ci\u003eThe Astropastorals\u003c\/i\u003e in a new collection, Nightboat Books presents his formidable reputation to a wider public for the first time in thirty-two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDouglas Crase was born in 1944 in Battle Creek, Michigan, raised on a nearby farm, and educated at the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs at Princeton. A former speechwriter, he was described in the Times Literary Supplement as the unusual case of a contemporary poet whose most public, expansive voice is his most authentic. His work has been widely anthologized and he has received a Witter Bynner Award, Whiting Writers' Award, and fellowships from the Guggenheim and MacArthur foundations for both his poetry and essays. He lives in New York and Carley Brook, Pennsylvania.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 160\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.8 x 8.8 x 5.9 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 15, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51770390315296,"sku":"9781643620107","price":23.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/7a83a978ef5ba9d90438c8c79a212933.webp?v=1780370747","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/the-revisionist-and-the-astropastorals-collected-poems-hardcover","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
