Until the late 1970s, W. D. Snodgrass was known primarily as a confessional poet and a key player in the emergence of that mode of poetry in the late 1950s and early 1960s. Snodgrass makes poetry out of the daily neuroses and everyday failures of a man—a husband, father, and teacher. This domestic suffering occurs against a backdrop of more universal suffering which Snodgrass believes is inherent in the human experience. Not for Specialists includes 35 new poems complemented by the superb work he wrote in the Pulitzer Prize winning collection, Heart’s Needle, along with poetry from seven other distinguished collections. from “Nocturnes” Seen from higher up, it makes its first move in the low creekbed, the marshlands down the valley, spreading across the open hayfields, the hedgerows with their tops still lit, laps the roadbed, flows over lawns and gardens, past the house and up the wooded hillside back behind us till only some few rays still scythe between the treetrunks from the far horizon and are gone. W. D. Snodgrass, born in Pennsylvania in 1926, is the author of more than 20 books of poetry, including The Fuehrer Bunker: The Complete Cycle (BOA, 1995); Each in His Season (BOA, 1993); and Heart's Needle (1959), which won the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry. His other books include To Sound Like Yourself: Essays on Poetry (BOA, 2002), After-Images: Autobiographical Sketches (BOA, 1999) and six volumes of translation, including Selected Translations (BOA Editions, 1998), which won the Harold Morton Landon Translation Award.

By the time the Pulitzer Prize-winning Heart's Needle appeared in 1959, W. D. Snodgrass had been accepted as a peer by some of the most important postwar American poets, including Robert Lowell, Randall Jarrell, Theodore Roethke, and John Berryman. The intensely personal and emotional nature of the poetry shocked critics. In writing about the intimacies and betrayals of family life, Snodgrass joined Lowell in creating what became commonly known as "confessional poetry". The personal lyric, reintroduced in Heart's Needle, arguably became the dominant poetry of the 1960s and 1970s. Snodgrass was a decade ahead of his time. The Poetry of W. D. Snodgrass: Everything Human gathers a rich selection of book reviews and critical essays and provides the first attempt to appraise the entire scope of this poet's work. Contributors include John Hollander, Hayden Carruth, Denis Donoghue, J. D. McClatchy, Harold Bloom, Hugh Kenner, and Dana Gioia. Stephen Haven's chronology of the poet's life and work supplements the reviews and essays in tracing Snodgrass's evolution as an artist and shedding new light on his work.

"These poems reveal an important American poet's impressive array of dramatic powers. This selection includes the best poems from his Pulitzer Prize-winning Heart's Needle, After Experience, Remains, small press poems, excerpts from The Fuehrer Bunker--a series of dramatic monologues from the top members of Hitler's Third Reich--and some new poems. In the new poems, which use the gentle surrealist paintings of DeLoss McGraw as vehicles, Snodgrass returns to himself as the subject, though not in his former confessional mode"--Publisher's description (Google Books).
