Poetry. Jim Harrison--one of America's most beloved writers--calls his poetry "the true bones of my life." Although he is best known as a fiction writer, it is as a poet that Publishers Weekly famously called him an "untrammeled renegade of genius. SAVING DAYLIGHT, Harrison's tenth collection of poetry, is his first book of new poems in a decade. All of Harrison's abundant passions for life are poured into suites, prose poems, letter-pomes, and even lyrics for a mariachi band. "Imagination is my only possession," Harrison once said. And SAVING DAYLIGHT is an imagination in full, exuberant bloom. Jum Harrison is the author of over thirty books of poetry, fiction, and nonfiction. His work has been translated into dozens of languages. Born and raised in Michigan, he now lives in Montana and Arizona. "Jim Harrison is a writer with immortality in him"--The Times (London).
