History of My Heart. By Robert Pinsky. One Christmastime Fats Waller in a fur coat. Rolled beaming from a taxicab with two pretty girls. Each at an arm as he led them in a thick downy snowfall. Across Thirty-Fourth Street into the busy crowd. Shopping at Macy’s: perfume, holly, snowflake displays. Chimes rang for change.
1 feb 1998 · History of My Heart, winner of the William Carlos Williams Prize, first appeared in 1984. In The New Republic, J.D. McClatchy called it "one of the best books of the past decade." It is Pinsky's third volume of poems--and an ideal introduction to the work of a vital and original contemporary American poet.

A stunning book of poems that begins with the rolling, enlarged and visionary "The Figured Wheel" - as large as the wheel of Tibetan Buddhism - in 49 lines collecting the simplest and grandest of existing matter. The title poem - History of My Heart - reads like Wordsworth of The Prelude and the growth of Pinsky's poet mind.
