1987. Introduced by Seamus Heaney.

"In a soft, even voice, she couches emotion in imagery, writing about nature or travel, encompassing all the romanticism that goes along with seeing new places...." --Library Journal

J.D. McClatchy has also praised Clampitt as "a genius for places," with "a large, confident, humane imagination." This selection, recorded in the year in which she published her third collection, Archaic Figure, includes poems from each of Amy Clampitt's four books.
