«O Taste and See» is Denise Levertov's collection of poems, published by New Directions in paperback (in English).
It brings together poems that explore sensory experience and everyday life, with a gaze that connects the concrete with the spiritual. Nature, the city and the body appear as paths of perception; the author combines free verse and a meditative tone without abandoning verbal precision or the celebration of the small.
The paperback edition was published in 1972 and belongs to twentieth-century American poetry.
For poetry readers seeking brief, sensory verses with a spiritual vein.
Priscilla Denise Levertov was a British-born naturalised American poet. She was heavily influenced by the Black Mountain poets and by the political context of the Vietnam War, which she explored in her poetry book The Freeing of the Dust. She was a recipient of the Lannan Literary Award for Poetry.
