Divine Nothingness
Poems
19 July 2016
Description
From the National Book Award–winning author of This Time, a new volume of poems that explore the very nature of existence.
Divine Nothingness is a meditative reflection on the poet’s past and an elegy to love and the experience of the senses in the face of mortality. From the Jersey side of the Delaware River in Lambertville, Gerald Stern explores questions about who and why we are, locating nothingness in the divine and the divine in nothingness.
