Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description: George Bowering has always maintained that his poems are germinated in secret ways - secrets he has, until now, assiduously kept to himself. In suddenly giving most of those secrets away, "Vermeer's Light" constitutes an extraordinary gesture of generosity from a poet to his readership. Its alphabet series A, You're Adorable, by "Ellen Field," a pseudonym Bowering often used; Imaginary Poems for AMB, addressed to his late wife Angela; He Is Not, a micro-translation of "Shelley's Adonais"; Q&A, which dares to take on the most fundamental questions of the human condition with level-headed honesty and wit - the list of revelations and the pyrotechnics of Bowering's craft presented here are spellbinding.
