What Was Lost: Poems

In this collection, Herbert Morris gathers 15 poems in his two signature modes, the dramatic monologue and the meditative reverie. His subjects include a resplendent apricot gown once worn by Lillian Gish (Chaplin enthralled, Griffith smitten, ecstatic); a poignant human detail in Caravaggio's The Sacrifice of Isaac; and a host of variations on the Peaceable Kingdom, the obsessive lifework of the painter Edward Hicks.
