The Noise That Time Makes

"The Noise That Time Makes" is the debut collection of poetry by Merrill Moore, a prominent member of the Fugitive group of writers. This significant work highlights Moore's mastery of the sonnet, a form he adapted with modern fluidity and psychological depth. The collection encompasses a wide variety of themes, ranging from the intricacies of human behavior to philosophical reflections on the relentless flow of time. Moore's verse is celebrated for its spontaneous energy and its ability to find profound meaning in everyday observations and the fleeting moments of life.

As an important volume in early twentieth-century American literature, "The Noise That Time Makes" illustrates the evolution of the sonnet in the hands of a poet who sought to bridge the gap between traditional structure and contemporary experience. The poems are marked by a unique conversational quality and a sharp, inquisitive perspective that remains compelling for readers interested in the development of American lyric poetry. This volume offers an essential look into the early career of a poet who would become one of the most prolific and distinctive voices in American letters, making it a valuable addition to any collection of modernist literature.
