Star Journal: Selected Poems

Star Journal is a selection of poems from Christopher Buckley's twenty previous collections, from 1980-2014.

Past praise from Philip Levine:
"The poems are modest, straight forward, intensely lyrical and totally accessible. . . . This is a humble poetry of great truths and profound emotions that never overstates its concerns for the events both in and above the world. It rewards countless readings and never betrays itself."
-Ploughshares
