Hardheaded Weather: New and Selected Poems Paperback - 2008
by Cornelius Eady
Cornelius Eady's new poems show him in full control ofhis considerable talents and displaying a rich maturityas he enters midlife. His poems are sly, unsentimental,and witty, full of truths that are intimate and profound.
Hardheaded Weather ranges widely, reflecting the newfoundresponsibilities Eady has assumed as he transitions from urbanrenter to nonplussed rural homeowner, as well as the soberinginfluence of war and the intimation of his own mortality. Yet evenat his angriest, the poet has always had a depth of compassionrare in our polarized age, with a sense of humor that is bothsophisticated and demotic. These poems will resonate deeply.
As exciting as the new poems are, his selected earlier poemsdazzle, too, as they demonstrate the arc of Cornelius Eady'smaturation and the originality of his voice. Taken together,Hardheaded Weather forms a moving and sometimes searing testament to the power of poetry.
