Visibilty: Selected Poems

The newest volume selects pieces from each of the poet's seven books of poetry and spans the poet's career, from his early work inspired by Seamus Heaney and his sense of form and feeling for the natural world, to later pieces that showcase the distinctive style Mort developed over time. The poetry utilizes a sharp eye for detail, an acute grasp of character, and the ability to evoke affecting atmosphere and situation to great effect. This compilation functions as both a satisfying collection of poetry and as a vantage point for observing the development of an artist.
