This paperback volume of the late Donald Justice's verse, from 1965, was a gift from my friend and peerless poetry aficionado Carl Anderson, and it is a treasure. Night Light is the kind of book that makes one despair of the current poetry "scene." It's nothing more complex than a collection of brief, fairly straightforward lyrics, but what lyrics they are and what a sensibility they express. They are finely honed, precisely balanced, often deeply poignant, without the slightest trace of sentimentality or histrionics. There is a perhaps faintly overinsistent echo of Stevens in Justice's prosody -- the flat diction, the unexpectedly metaphysical adjective -- but on the whole the book is like a case study in superior postwar high modernist verse.
