Sentences

In this dazzling collection, Nemerov plays with other forms of poetry, including gnomic verse, sonnets, and lyrics. 'Sentences' reverberates with imaginative approaches to poetry, and the subject matters are equally varied. Poems, such as 'A Christmas Storm,' and 'By Al Leibowitz's Pool' are both charming and fantastic examples of the author's ability with words. Shot through with his trademark sense of the satirical, 'Sentences' is a must for Nemerov fans, and for those looking for an introduction to his work. -
