This review is from: Traveling in Notions : The Stories of Gordon Penn : Poems (James Dickey Contemporary Poetry Series) (Paperback)
A random purchase at a Thurber House booksale a couple years ago, this found its way to my reading pile as a "take a break from the usual stuff" book.
I read very little poetry, but if this is any indication as to what is out there I need to change that. The Gordon Penn character is an average man with lots of questions and a very likeable outlook on life, and these poems relating his story were wonderful. Highly recommended.

I recently came across this book and was thrilled at what I read. Rosen is a wonderful storyteller, his poems are spun seamlessly. Although his use of language is fairly conventional, it is full of surprises. I highly recommend this to any poetry reader who is looking for a book that will reinvigorate your belief in the power of common speech.
