4.0 out of 5 stars Great Poet, March 28, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Waltzing Through the Endtime (Paperback)
David Bottoms is a wonderful poet. It is understandable that he is Poet Laureate of Georgia. This honor is well deserved. I look forward to reading more of his poetry.
I highly recommend this book!

5.0 out of 5 stars Will be Remembered as Some of His Best Work, November 3, 2004
By 
J. E. R. (Upstate New York) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Waltzing Through the Endtime (Paperback)
First and foremost, these poems will certainly satisfy long-time readers of the author's work with its southern settings and atmosphere. Anyone wanting vintage Bottoms is going to like this book. However, in addition to harkening back to his prior work, the poet definitely breaks new ground with his longer poems. I found myself completely enthralled by the extended pieces - so much so that I didn't want them to end, and neither will any other reader of this wonderful collection. Read it and thoroughly enjoy it.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Balm for the Spirit, November 2, 2004
This review is from: Waltzing Through the Endtime (Paperback)
Memory and music intertwine in Waltzing through the Endtime, a book destined to insure Bottoms' rank among the maverick poets of all time. Throughout the book, Bottoms achieves the swaying arc of the waltz, matching its sweeping rhythm with the mastery of his lines, lines as all-encompassing of the human spirit as Whitman's. Roethke said a poem is a holy thing, a good poem, that is, and with Waltzing through the Endtime, Bottoms offers immeasurable blessing for us all. Like no other poet writing today, he rages against the materialism of our time and delivers us once again restored and spiritualized.
