Robert Morgan's welcome
Collected Early Poems
presents in one volume the contents of his first four full-length books, which appeared in steady succession over the course of a decade. His remarkable debut,
Zirconia Poems
, was published by Lillabulero Press in 1969, when he was only twenty-four. A limited edition chapbook titled
The Voice in the Crosshairs
was brought out by the Angelfish Press in 1971; nearly all those poems (joined with many more) soon saw wider distribution as part of
Red Owl
, released by W. W. Norton in 1972. In 1976, LSU Press published
Land Diving
, which gathered the first poems Morgan wrote after starting what would become a fifty-year career teaching at Cornell University. L'Epervier Press issued
Trunk & Thicket
in 1978; its author was still only thirty-three, an age by which Walt Whitman, Robert Frost, and Wallace Stevens had yet to produce their first volumes. (from Introduction by Robert M. West)
