A Fine Collection,
By A Customer
This review is from: One of the Many Roses (Paperback)
McCormick's collection is a fine example of what is happening in contemporary American poetry. If you're looking for ambiguity, this is not your kind of book. If you're looking for great verse steeped in beauty and carefulness, BUY THIS BOOK! Cheers to the brilliant Mr. McCormick.
