batsy Amazing. It'll be wonderful to have a copy of that. A lifetime's work ❤️ 8y
Lesliereads @batsy Yes, so much of his life's work represented in this volume with the exception of Omeros. 8y
BellaBookNook I just discovered him after he passed and am eager to get my hands on one of his collections. 7y
Lesliereads @BellaBookNook Oh! I think you can start anywhere with Walcott's work. This collection was just sitting at Powell's bookstore waiting for me and a ten dollar bill😊. 7y

Rest in perfect peace and poetic power, Derek Walcott (1930 - 2017). Born in St. Lucia. This poet and playwright won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1992. He once said that "The fate of poetry is to fall in love with the world in spite of History." #poetry #nobelprizeinliterature1992 #stlucianpoetandplaywright #poet
