This volume is V. B. Price's second Selected Poems, covering a wild and wildly productive period of his poetic life. While some of the pieces have been previously published (including Rome MMI, Memoirs of the World in Ten Fragments, and some of the Christmas poems), most are new and published here for the first time. Price has added to his body of Chaco work with "Chaco Nights," as well as excerpting from ambitious and ongoing projects such as Homeric America (chronicling the great Wanderers and Warriors of U.S. American history) and the Museum Poems (ekphrastic pieces responding to great artworks both well- and lesser-known). Here, we find one of the great American poets expanding and exploring his own capabilities and offering his work to the world as it is.
