Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Poetry. Award-winning poet Joshua Beckman returns with 150 extraordinary short lyrics which build a kind of meta-narrative throughout this haunting and powerful book. This new collection showcases Beckman's ability, even within the constraints of a few brief lines, to suggest and sustain emotions, landscapes, humor and desire. "There are no similarities with Apollinaire or Ginsberg, except with what they were doing to Time while they were young" - Tomaz Salamun. "America and its readers are lucky to have him" - Ernest Hilbert, Bold Type.
