A Journal in Poetry,
By Maria C. Leng (Townsend, MA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Evening Sun : A Journal in Poetry (Paperback)
In the "Evening Sun," David Lehman expresses a poetic sensibility that is rich, deep, and moving. He has captured the personal and the powerful in the memory of days. May 28 and September 18th are my favorites, and it seems odd as one is historical and the other shows the beautiful presence of the poet's voice. I've read a lot of David Lehman's verse and find remarkable here each poem's surprising, powerful, and apropos ending. I closed the "Evening Sun" longing for another poem. I think you will, too.

Goodbye Instructions: Purchase This Book!,

This review is from: The Evening Sun : A Journal in Poetry (Paperback)
Even though I haven't appeared in one of David's poems since 1990's "Cambridge 1972" where I met Becky and mistook Joan Miró for a woman -- you probably haven't either! You should still buy this fantastic book of poems!David will take you to great baseball games (10/9, 10/16, 4/3); share the best music in nearly EVERY poem -- (Mahler on 7/19; Mingus on 11/30; John Cage, Alban Berg {didn't I *first* play his violin concerto for you so many years ago!} and many more)... You will laugh you will cry you will giggle you will sigh. Okay, I'll leave the poetry to David. This is the E-TICKET ride of poetry books. Get it. |
