About this title

Synopsis

Poems by William Logan.

Reviews

Though their images are taken largely from natureorchards, crows, moonlit landscapesthese poems are anything but rustic. Logan envelops the natural world in a highly philosophical, abstract mode of thought that manifests itself in meticulously stylized, almost hieratic diction. For all their imagistic richness, the poems are reserved, distant, inscrutable, cohering more through syntax than through sense. Except for the title poem, which moves toward poignancy ("I understand the love/ that twists us into lives we never meant"), and "The Shootist," a chilling monologue in ballad form, this solemn book presents a world mysteriously devoid of people, a life apart from life. Fred Muratori, Cornell Univ. Lib.
