Dave Primc (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Atomic Field: Two Poems (Hardcover)

Atomic Field: Two Poems is an epic adventure into the childhood of Nicholas Christopher. Each extended poem is made up of forty-five parts and each part describes events within a particular year. The first poem is look at the experiences of a young boy growing up in 1962. Christopher succeeds in presenting several images that are vivid, surreal and truly capture the mind of a child. The second poem is a success as well, delving into different adolescent experiences a decade later in 1972. As in Christophers previous poetry the images are crisp, and he achieves a very authentic voice. This entire collections reads in a dream-like manner so successfully woven together one can hardly put it down.
