4.0 out of 5 stars
In search of great poetry, I found Richard Cecil,
By Lee Collier (Illinois) - See all my reviews
This review is from: In Search of the Great Dead (Crab Orchard Award Series in Poetry) (Paperback)
I saw Richard Cecil give a poetry presentation last year at the SIU Law Auditorium, and I was definately impressed. I eventually bought this latest book of poems, and am even more impressed. I completely relate to his work. They are about everyday things, and are analyzed in a way that makes me think about my own life. Themes of death and other certain things in life are treated in a way that is both frighening and amusing. In my opinion, the best selection from the book is "Writers in Hell," where Mr. Cecil describes what the afterlife would be like for an overly proud author. I actually laughed out loud, and then read it again, which is a rare thing when I read poetry.
