Poetry. Tracing a road that runs from Milarepa to Michaux, from Isabelle Eberhardt to Jack Kerouac, Louise Landes Levi offers a compilation of spiritual experimentation and 'ordinary' road adventure. Here, musical genre, iconoclasm and itineracy mix as we observe the author's devotional impulse. She is the author of a dozen books of poetry and her work has been translated into several languages. Louise Landes Levi's poems are the union of street smart and great wisdom. Her poems sing in the mind, and dance through the heart and throat, and arms and legs, with great clarity and bliss. Louise is Sarasvati, goddess of poetry -- John Giorno.
