Also included are thirty new and uncollected poems.

Maurice Kenny is visiting professor at the State University of New York at Potsdam. He lives in Saranac Lake in New York State’s Adirondack Mountains. His most recent books, both from the University of Michigan Press, are Tortured Skins & Other Fictions and In the Time of the Present.

5.0 out of 5 stars Thank You Dr. Kenny, February 2, 2004
By 
This review is from: Carving Hawk: New and Selected Poems 1956-2000 (Paperback)
As an Undergraduate Writing major at Potsdam College I had the pleasure of taking two classes with Dr. Kenny. I wanted to say that this book is just a slight reflection of Dr. Kenny's thoughts and idealism. He is an amazing writer who can create solid events within his mind, and history making them come to life with Native American appeal.
