Arc International Poets
These poems – many of them set in the rural America of Lux’s childhood – are lyrical monologues delivered by a narrator who both loves the world and has intense quarrels with it. A musical, lucid, strange, playful and serious collection.
“Lux may be one of the poets on whom the future of the genre depends. He has the stuff to win readers back from their unhappy places of exile.” Sven Birkerts
