Some years ago. Rod McKuen produced an
album entitled The Sea. It contained readings
of his quiet, introspective poetry over a lush
musical background. That album has be-
come the most successful "mood recording"
ever made. selling literally millions of copies
throughout the world, with the selections
from it translated into Italian. French, Ger-
man, Dutch and Japanese.
Since that time Mr. McKuen s readers have
been expecting him to compile a book of
poetry using the sea as a canvas. More than
ten years later the author has done just that.
The Sea Around Me is an ambitious collec-
tion of new poetry, which details frankly and
honestly the end of a love affair, the aftermath
of being alone, and finally the awakening,
elation and hesitation that a new love brings.
The story unfolds like a novel even as the
reader knows it is impossible for the words
here to be anything but true.
W. H. Auden has said. "Rod McKuen s
poems are letters to the world and I m happy
that many of them came to me and found me
out." Perhaps that is the secret of Rod Mc-
Kuen s gift. He is able to communicate, touch-
ing each reader directly; his depth of feeling
and sensitivity and his constant caring are
what set him apart.
