Gibbons, Robert

Animated Landscape

ISBN: 9781609642570
Kenmore, NY: BlazeVOX Books, 2016. First Edition. Softcover. "Robert Gibbons is one of the great secrets of contemporary US poetry. Gibbons says that "Animated Landscape" is the collection he was destined to write. One hopes too that it's the collection destined to reveal him to a wider circle of readers. It places him firmly in the tradition of modern US poetry, following Olson, Creeley, and the Objectivists..." (Ben Bollig, Professor of Spanish American Literature, Oxford University). Bollig's praise is justifiable, as is easily evident when reading a piece from this collection, namely "Think of Detroit," which reflects on the city's current standing, its importance as an artistic nucleus, and nods to the world-renowned Diego Riviera mural housed at the Detroit Institute of Arts. Book in as new condition. As New. [Item #2774]
