ISBN: 0892553375 ISBN-13: 9780892553372 Publisher: Persea Books OUR PRICE: $12.60 Product Type: Paperback Published: February 2008 Annotation: "Her poems [are]...a particular and splendid instance of what Hopkins meant by 'proper poetry, the language of inspiration.'"--Richard Howard Political outrage rustles the high grasses of these ingenious lyrics, which often employ the ecologies of both the Florida panhandle and the Aegean coast to slyly portray humanity's foibles. Formally inventive (included is a series of "monosonnets"), Wade's is a boisterous poetry, one that takes pleasure in itself even during its conniptions of incredulity at the behavior of people in power (and in particular one dubiously elected president). |
