Mister Skylight. Ed Skoog

Аннотация:

• Skoog is well-connected younger poet • Published in a dizzying range of magazines and journals, from Poetry to Forklift, Ohio • Skoog owns a house in New Orleans, and was out of town when Hurricane Katrina hit. “I was at the Bread Loaf Writers Conference when the storm was gathering,” he notes, “Those were the worst days of my life.” He still owns the house in New Orleans, “to retain a stake in the city.” • Sections of book are set in the urban South (New Orleans); the Heartland (Kansas); and the West Coast (California) • Skoog is one of those discoveries that make reading contemporary poetry a rich and rewarding activity
