Brilliant new poems and an expansive gathering from six collections by a Pulitzer Prize winner celebrated as "indispensable."What Goes On displays the evolving style and sensibility of a major award-winning poet, and a traceable growth that has blossomed into a provocative confrontation with questions of consciousness and existence. Stephen Dunn's poems probe life's big questions without ever losing sight of the significance of the mundane.
