Description - Claude Before Time and Space by Claudia Emerson

In Claude before Time and Space, her final collection, Pulitzer Prize- winning poet Claudia Emerson quietly but fiercely explores the themes of mortality and time.

In the first section of this book, The Wheel, Emerson uses a rural southern setting in poems that reflect on memory, the self, and relationships. In section two, Bird Ephemera, she explores historical figures- from an early naturalist and writer who raised her children in poverty to a small-town doctor. The collection concludes with a series of poems named after the poet's father. This illuminating body of work displays a master poet at the height of her craft.
