Synopsis
The Father is often regarded as Sharon Olds’ most important and powerful single book. In its poems, Olds narrows her focus to a sequence of startling and provocative poems about a daughter’s final days with her dying father. It is an elegant, passionate examination of love and loss, a bittersweet, transcendent elegy.
