Reseña del editor

An introduction to the work of an American Arabist and Sufi poet.

Daniel Moore's appeal is twofold: his poetics are derived from open forms of the Black Mountain and San Francisco Renaissance schools and a sensibility of devotional and thoroughly modern approach, drawing on Sufism and surrealism. Ranging from the personal and lyrical to full narratives and the ever-present mystical elements -- free verse coincides with Islamic devotion -- this is an exploration of the intercultural, traditional, and postmodern world.
