This Clumsy Living - Paperback
by Bob Hicok (Author)
Winner of the 2008 Bobbit National Poetry Prize.
"Few others in contemporary poetry are so brilliantly able to combine wit and weight, to charge the language so it virtually glows in the dark. Hicok's poems just plain rock. They rock because they are gorgeous. They rock because they are sad and turn on the radio. They dance our 'clumsy living' with our shadows and our isolations to a music that always, always remembers the original delight in which 'the feel of things, if [we] cherish, helps [us] live / more like a minute than a clock.'"--Beckian Fritz GoldbergAuthor Biography
