Description
Anthony Madrid continues to astonish and amuse with his fourth book of poems, WHATEVER'S FORBIDDEN THE WISE.
In Anthony Madrid's fourth book, WHATEVER'S FORBIDDEN THE WISE, the poet appraises this world "full of ancient things whose shapes and colors have changed," as his singular, unforgettable and voice resonates in ghazals, rubai, ditties, and "gnomic stanzas." A polymath and iconoclast, Madrid knows the names of the stars and turns their light into astonishing music.
Poetry.
