Winter Solstice: Selected Poetry 1975-2012, edited by James Hepworth, gathers together the very best of Michael Hogan's work from the Paris Review, The American Poetry Review, the Iowa Review and dozens of other journals and magazines, as well as several out-of-print books. It is a valuable addition to the American poetry library. Sam Hamill in his Introduction to this volume writes: "These poems written over the past thirty years most often contain a narrative thread that leads into an awakening insight, a meditative revelation that arrives not with a shock, but with a sigh or a moment of stillness capturing an essence that is pure poetry, that moment between image-making and philosophy, between the intimate whisper of truth and the song's need to be sung."
