John Drury

4.9/5 (20945 ratings)

Description:From Venice to the Eastern Shore of Maryland, from one disappearing town in the marshes to another, John Drury, in his first full-length book of poems, navigates through the twisty channels of memory and perception, loss and desire, where what's real and what's a wavering reflection attract and perplex the bedazzled explorer. In this flat terrain, poised before floodtide, children learn to write longhand and to take off each other's clothes, adolescents goof off at menial jobs, a lyric soprano loses her nerve and possibly her voice, husbands and wives drift apart in their separate obsessions and pursuits. Like a camera's viewfinder in which two halves of an image must line up perfectly to come into focus, Drury pieces together the past and the present into "one likeness that is whole."We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
