More DescriptionThe poems in Writing the Silences represent more than 60 years of Richard O. Moore_s work as a poet. Selected from seven full-length manuscripts written between 1946 and 2008, these poems reflect not only Moore_s place in literary history_he is the last of his generation of the legendary group of San Francisco Renaissance poets_but also his reemergence into today_s literary world after an important career as a filmmaker and producer in public radio and television. Writing the Silences reflects Moore_s commitment to freedom of form, his interest in language itself, and his dedication to issues of social justice and ecology.
