Joseph Stroud, (born 1943, Glendale, California) is an American poet. ==Life== He was educated at the University of San Francisco, California State University at Los Angeles, and San Francisco State University. He is currently retired from teaching at Cabrillo College. He has published five collections of poetry, most recently ''Of This World; New and Selected Poems''〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Book Review )〕 (Copper Canyon Press, 2008) and ''Country of Light ''(Copper Canyon Press, 2004). His work earned a Pushcart Prize in 2000 and has been featured on Garrison Keillor's Writer's Almanac. He was also a finalist for the Northern California Book Critics Award in 2005 and a year later was selected for a Witter Bynner Fellowship in poetry from the Library of Congress. Varied in subject and form, Stroud’s poems include six-line lyrics, narrative prose poems, odes, homages, sustained contemplations, suites, and brief epigrammatic offerings. However it is substance, whatever form it takes, that interests him. His poetry articulates a voyage through places and times and voices, often sifting through the details of daily life, searching for miracles (“Inside the pear there’s a paradise we will never know, our only hint the sweetness of its taste.” - Comice, ''Below Cold Mountain''). He divides his time between his home in Santa Cruz, California, and a cabin in the Sierra Nevada.〔("Joseph Stroud", ''Good Times Weekly'', 31 December 2008 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Joseph Stroud」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
