Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sanity of Earth and Grass brings together over a hundred poems, thirty-one of them never before published, by a remarkable American poet. A gregarious person who loved and celebrated human bonds, Winner also drew strength from nature, and his poems glow with sensual pleasure and confrontation. As he says in On Lexington Avenue, What I like is smell . . . the enormous kindness of sensation. At the same time, and without self-pity, he probes graphically and at unusual depth the violence, deprivation, and injustice that are part of so many lives.
