Description
This year’s winner of the Yale Series of Younger Poets competition is Maurice Manning’s *Lawrence Booth’s Book of Visions*. These compelling poems take us on a wild ride through the life of a man child in the rural South. Presenting a cast of allegorical and symbolic, yet very real, characters, the poems have “authority, daring, [and] a language of color and sure movement,” says series judge W. S. Merwin.
