Poetry. Winner of the 2003 Gerald Cable Book Award and short-listed for the PEN Center's 2007 Joyce Osterweil Award, Conway's ANY HOLY CITY contains poems that "navigate with nerve through deep waters: nothing less than matters of good and evil, sacrifice and redemption. The poems have a distinctive, winning style: laconic but passionate, attentive to the profane as well as the Biblical, always completely serious and never merely solemn" - Robert Pinsky.
