About the Author

A graduate of the Iowa Writers' Workshop, James Shea currently teaches poetry writing and literature at Columbia College Chicago and DePaul University. STAR IN THE EYE is his first book. STAR IN THE EYE was named as a "Favorite Book of 2008" by the Chicago Sun-Times.

Review

"The speaker of Star in the Eye is wide-awake in a dreamscape, navigating an illustrated netherworld where the 'Plane's Controls Come Off in My Hands' and a love affair can be distilled into the titles of unwritten haikus- all in the same poem. Again and again James Shea brings us to the edge of the unknown and points into the darkness, until our eyes adjust and we see that he is pointing at himself, already there. These poems make me wish I had the same dreams Shea has, and after reading this book it seems possible-anything does." (Nick Flynn)
