At ninety-two, Earl J. Wilcox writes from the steady light of long attention. Preludes & Other Poems gathers new and selected works from a lifetime devoted to language, reflection, and faith in the ordinary.

At ninety-two, Earl J. Wilcox writes from the steady light of long attention. Preludes & Other Poems gathers new and selected works from a lifetime devoted to language, reflection, and faith in the ordinary. A retired professor and founding editor of The Robert Frost Review, Wilcox brings the same clarity that shaped his years of teaching into these poems-each one a lamp lit against the dark. From the tender rituals of marriage to the quiet reckonings of age, Wilcox writes with restraint and radiance. His poems echo Dickinson's precision, Frost's steadiness, and Eliot's search for order, yet remain distinctly his own-rooted in the Carolina soil that has always sustained him. In these pages, mourning becomes music, and every act of seeing becomes a form of grace. Curated and introduced by Andrew Mack of Loblolly Press, this new collection continues the partnership that began with The Surfacing of Joy. Preludes & Other Poems invites readers of Mary Oliver, Wendell Berry, Jane Kenyon, and Maggie Smith alike to slow down, look closely, and find beauty in what endures. Here is a poet who proves that clarity is its own grace, a long look made luminous.
