Donald Justice

    Donald Justice is remembered as a poet who offered his era a quiet yet compelling insight into loss and distance. His work is distinguished by a high standard of craftsmanship, meticulous attention to detail, and subtle rhythms. As an educator, he famously championed the poem itself, defending it against criticism and encouraging students to focus on their own authentic voices rather than abstract theories.
