Summary:
"Powerful poems about men and women at the margins. Dark Harvest showcases two decades of Joseph Millar's finest poetic work, including his beloved and award-winning poems centered on the unseen men and women at the margins of American life. Millar's poems don't favor beauty over suffering, nor do they reach for knowledge over mystery--instead, his words carry forward their Whitmanic imperatives: to turn away from nothing, to be awash in contradictions.''-- Provided by publisher.
