5.0 out of 5 stars Incantations, April 2, 2006
This review is from: Burning the Empty Nests (Paperback)
Gregory Orr is unreal. Every poem in this collection, whether concerning the poet's complicated youth, or merely describing a lake, takes off in a frenzy of pyrotechnical magic that is both comprehensible and awe inspiring.

I do not think there is a single poet out there today who has Orr's talent and who is also so eager to give interviews, expound on poetry without pretentiousness, and give otherwise lost young poets a roadmap to go by. And if you've ever read anything about him, you'll know how far he's come and how much he's worked through. This and his latest in "Rattle" are highly recommended.
