A wry, poignant reflection on aging from one of America's finest and most admired poets. Admired by such luminaries as indie film director Jim Jarmusch and punk rock godfather Richard Hell, Pulitzer Prize finalist Ron Padgett is one of our best known and most acclaimed poets. For the last six decades, Padgett's poetry-"wonderful, generous, funny" (John Ashbery)-has moved and delighted generations of readers with its inventiveness, its gentle humor, and above all, its ability to instil wonder. Padgett brings these same qualities to his new book of poems, Pink Dust, a poignant reflection on old age that shimmers with all the insouciance of youth.
