Poetry. A masterful poet writing in his sixth collection, Hartman harnesses thenumber pi to find the form for its introductory longpoem; celebrates aGreek island's denizens, furnishings, and views in a series of concentrated and eccentric glimpses; writes in Greek and translates back to English; and boils the cumulative song down to a rich prose meditation on maps and the body's kinesthesis, wed in the knowledge that makes, however long or briefly, a home. "If poets are lucky to study everything, Hartman's wide-ranging and inventive mind is one of the luckiest writing. His poems are our good fortune"--Boston Book Review.
