Both intimate and wide ranging, her work is unafraid of big subjects and big feelings, and sometimes comedic. Her third collection, \u003ci\u003eThe Last Skin\u003c\/i\u003e, extends and develops these qualities, offering landscapes and characters both domestic and exotic, in poignant personal lyrics of precise description that investigate beauty, grief, death, fragility, time, and loss. Here is a poet engaged with the spirit as well as the political, blending the give and take of the world into her own ecstatic rhythms.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBarbara Ras's first book of poems, \u003ci\u003eBite Every Sorrow\u003c\/i\u003e, won the Walt Whitman Award in 1997 and the Kate Tufts Discovery Award.
