Barks is a Genius,
By Robert T Canipe (USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Gourd Seed: Poems (Paperback)
What a wonderful collection. I was fortunate enough to see him read some of these poems live and in person and they are probably the finest Southern poetry since Tim Peeler's TOUCHING ALL THE BASES.Mr. Barks words smell of country air and freshly cut grass. They pull out memories long buried but fine, strong, and clean memories nonetheless. His nostalgia for things long lost in southern country parlors and creaking back porches is incandescent in its description and the mind-pictures are as bright as those projected on the drive-in screen on sultry summer Saturday nights. Try GOURD SEED or any of Coleman Barks original poetry. You will thank yourself for it. |
