Ultramarine by Raymond Carver

"Carver's gifts as a storyteller shine through his poetry" (Los Angeles Times) in this collection that moves from the beauty of the world to thoughts of mortality and family and art.

One of Raymond Carver's final collections of poetry, this collection "has the astonished, chastened voice of a person who has survived a wreck, as surprised that he had a life before it as that he has one afterward, willing to remember both sides" ( The New York Times Book Review).
