1991 - Introduced by Galway Kinnell.

"With Galway Kinnell's introduction setting the stage, Kunitz's work takes on an autobiographical quality not always apparent in his books, and this tape is wholly engrossing." --Library Journal

At the age of 86, Stanley Kunitz reads his work with incredible power and intensity. This is a marvelous selection of poems from the manuscript of Passing Through: The Later Poems New and Selected, for which he received the National Book Award.

Length: 52 min.
