In her sixteenth collection of new poetry from New Directions, Denise Levertov displays what The Village Voice has called all her virtues of musicality, mystery, and directness. A Door in the Hive addresses paintings, music, landscapes, terror in El Salvador, but the emphasis again--as in her recent Breathing the Water--is on the contemplative. Her dialogue between the eager inward gaze and the vast enigma deepens. Meditative, the poems are at the same time informed by a keenly felt urgency: Extremities, we are in/unacknowledged extremis./We feel only/a chill as the pulse of life/recedes.
