Trade paperback. Zustand: Good. [8], 118, [2] pages. Some cover wear. This copy has an author signed inscription on the half-title page that reads: "Diane - To a wonderful person and a fine poet. May you continue to write + burn with creative fire. The Very Best, Patrick 9-27-95". This, Patrick Lawler's second book-length collec…tion, is his follow-up to the critically praised A Drowning Man Is Never Tall Enough, and affirmation that he is one of the up and coming poets of his generation. Restricted by nothing, he lives on the edge without hesitation or fear. He is a poet for our time. Patrick Lawler was a professor at SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry, where he teaches Environmental Writing and Environmental Literature. He also teaches creative writing at LeMoyne College and Onondaga Community College. His poems have appeared in magazines and journals such as American Poetry Review, Central Park, The Iowa Review, Shenandoah, Nimrod and Northwest Review. A review of Patrick Lawler's poetry collection, describes it as a powerful and vital work that affirms his status as a significant contemporary poet. The review praises the book's "blazing" and "burning" life within its pages, suggesting it offers a sense of urgency and watchfulness despite its unconventional title and presentation. A review on Goodreads calls the book a testament to Lawler's talent, describing him as a poet for "our time". The reviewer was initially put off by the book's unusual title and lowercase style, but was won over by the powerful poetry inside. The poetry is described as "blazing back, very life, burning and burning," with a mind that is "prudently, but never anxiously, watchful" First Edition thus, presumed first printing [some poems previously published in periodicals].
