Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

John Wood is well known for his brilliant writing on the history of photography, but for many years he has also centered on his work as a poet, publishing in some of the very best magazines and gaining the deep admiration of many writers and poets. This book is testimony of his devotion to his craft - a fully realized, mature, and carefully constructed collection.

Book News Annotation:

A co-winner of the 1993 Iowa Poetry Prize and, unlike many prize- winning collections of poetry that parade their virtuosity, an uncontrived and emotionally direct expression of memory and experience. A fine book.
Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
