Review
Grand Passion: The Poets of Los Angeles and Beyond, edited by Suzanne Lummis and Charles H. Webb, is done right. One can welcome the fact that it does not hide behind the tired cliché of avant-garde or counterculture quirkiness to excuse sloppiness, lack of design or readability, things that have become all too prevalent in poetry publication. From the very feel and look of the publication to the choice and combination of poetic works, it is one of the most satisfying and elegantly produced volumes I have seen in more than a decade, a precarious but highly successful balance of emotion, technique, politics and dreams. Grand Passion shows a strong editorial hand but is certainly no hasty sampling of recent poets connected with the interests of the editors. -- Los Angeles Times Sunday Book Review, Robert Dassanowsky
