5.0 out of 5 stars A small gem; a tour-de-force, November 28, 2009
This review is from: Cathedral-Tree-Train and Other Poems (Paperback)
The above review from Library Review is pretty condescending and doesn't do the book justice (referring to the poems as "loony", "disturbed" ""pieces"" of "obsession"). Rather, Cathedral-Tree-Train is a brooding, unsentimental but loving elegy for the author's friend, abstract-expressionist painter Keith Sanzenbach. The net feeling is one of tremendous energy: it crackles with the energy of the subject matter and the focus required to write with clarity (and at moments, humor) through the foggy lenses of time, regret, bewilderment and loss. Highly recommended.
