Pure by Carol Frost

Pure is a fierce, passionate series of meditations on experience and consciousness, morals and customs, and on the natural world that surrounds and shapes human life. Frost's poems bear the stamp of a thoroughly original artistic vision and style - they are discursive yet filled with concrete images; they inquire into moral issues - pleasure, guilt, jealousy - without moralizing; they catch the echoes of western myths in domestic and quotidian events; they sharply diagnose relations between the sexes.
Carol Frost divides her time between Cedar Key, Florida, and upstate New York. Her poems have appeared in the Pushcart Prize anthology three different years, and she is a poetry editor for Pushcart Prize Anthology XXVII and The Best of Pushcart Prize Poetry: Selections from the First Thirty Years. She is also the director and founder of the Catskill Poetry Workshop, and is the recipient of two fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts. Her books include I Will Say Beauty (2003), Love and Scorn (2000), Venus and Don Juan (1996), and Pure (1994), all published by TriQuarterly Books/Northwestern University Press.
