A major collection of entirely new poems from the Pulitzer Prize and National Book Award-winning author of Time and Materials and The Apple Trees at Olema
A new volume of poetry from Robert Hass is always an event. In Summer Snow, his first collection of poems since 2010, Hass further affirms his position as one of our most highly regarded
living poets. Hass’s trademark careful attention to the natural world, his subtle humor, and the delicate but wide-ranging eye he casts on the human experience are fully on display in his masterful
collection. Touching on subjects including the poignancy of loss, the serene and resonant beauty of nature, and the mutability of desire, Hass exhibits his virtuosic abilities, expansive intellect,
and tremendous readability in one of his most ambitious and formally brilliant collections to date.

Editorial Reviews
“In this ruminative, endlessly clever book, Pulitzer Prize–winner Hass turns his eye toward nature, love, and even drone strikes, as…images of his Northern California environs shimmer with life…Hass experiments with form, vacillating between long and short lines, stanzas and long unbroken blocks of verse…Hass is a rarity, a poet’s poet and a reader’s poet who, with this newest endeavor, bestows a precious gift to his audience.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review)
