<P>Apples from Shinar was Hyam Plutzik’s second complete collection. Originally published in 1959 as a part of Wesleyan University Press’s newly minted poetry series, the collection includes ‘The Shepherd’—a section of the book-length poem ‘Horatio, ‘ which earned Plutzik a finalist position for the Pulitzer Prize. ‘The love and the words and the simplicity, ‘ that mark Plutzik’s poetry, writes Philip Booth, ‘are all here [in Apples from Shinar], and the poems come peacefully, and wonderfully, alive.’ With a previously unpublished foreword by Hyam Plutzik and a new afterword by David Scott Kastan, this edition marks the centenary of Plutzik’s birth and will introduce a new generation of readers to the work of one of the best mid-century American poets.</P>
