Description
Poetry. Larry Watson vividly animates the world of memory, as one might expect from an accomplished fiction writer, but the language here also exhibits the ear and lyrical dexterity of a fine poet. These poems contain many great stories, but also deliver knockout lyric turns and strains of melancholy music. This is the author's first full-length poetry collection, containing many poems that have been previously published in various distinguished literary magazines, such as Gettysburg Review, Chicago Quarterly Review, New England Review, and American Review, as well as recent new work.
