Ask me - William Stafford

In celebration of the American poet's centennial, Ask Me collects 100 of William Stafford's essential poems together in one title. As a conscientious objector during World War II, whilst assigned to Civilian Public Service camps, Stafford began his daily writing practice, a lifelong early morning ritual of witness. His poetry reveals the consequences of violence, the daily necessity of moral decisions, and the bounty of art. Selected and with a note by Kim Stafford, Ask Me presents the best from a profound and original American voice.
