Heaven of the Moment
John C. Morrison

naturalist: he ponders the silent
correspondences between the
natural world and the self.
He shows us how to adore the

life.”

Problem with the Truth is a
book of largess and celebration.
Its poems rise out of a quality of
attention—to feeling, thought,
and, above all, language—that
both prompts and invites similar
focus, similar absorption, from
readers.”

“Peter Sears’ Tour is a
delight—from the watercolor
blushes for loved ones,
through the Monty Python

China Basin
Clemens Starck
"I have been crazy about Clem
Starck's poetry ever since I
read it a few years ago while
picking him as the winner of
the Oregon Book Award. I'm
not alone in particularly
cherishing poems by people
who work with their hands.
Carpenters, printers and
factory workers are a fresh
and vital antidote to the
myriad of academic poets.
Cheers for Clem!"

and repetition drive Lex
Runciman’s moral investiga-
tions of a world —our world

“The intelligence, the imagina-
tion, the quick humor in Solar
Prominence all point in the
same direction: toward the
poem as a made thing, a thing
of light, crafted, the way craft,
through its various art,
transforms the generalities into
the specifics of magic.”
—Stanley Plumly

“Spiders, sow bugs, aphids,
house flies, cabbage moths,
stinging nettles—not to mention
beans, peach pits, and the
pockets of warm air lingering
under willows—Goodrich's
concern for all of nature,
including us, is extraordinary,
and absolutely genuine.”
