by Amy Clampitt

The Collected Poems of Amy Clampitt Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

The Collected Poems brings together the five books published in Clampitt's lifetime — books whose verse celebrates the natural worlds of Iowa and Maine, the poet's travels abroad, William and Dorothy Wordsworth, Keats, and New York's village life.

About the Author

Amy Clampitt was born and brought up in New Providence, Iowa, graduated from Grinnell College, and from that time on lived mainly in New York City. Her first full-length collection, The Kingfisher, published in 1983, was followed in 1985 by What the Light Was Like, in 1987 by Archaic Figure, and in 1990 by Westward. A Silence Opens, her last book, appeared in 1994.

The recipient in 1982 of a Guggenheim Fellowship, and in 1984 of an Academy of American Poets Fellowship, she was made a MacArthur Prize Fellow in 1992. She was a member of the American Academy of Arts and Letters and was a Writer in Residence at the College of William and Mary, Visiting Writer at Amherst College, and Grace Hazard Conkling Visiting Writer at Smith College.

She died in September 1994.
