Poetry. Nick Bozanic has found a way back into the realm of the natural world in his new book, no easy task for poets this late in the century. Mr. Bozanic has managed a remarkable balance. The result is a luminous world that emerges naturally from the drama these poems yearn to share with us. "None of this would have been possible if the proper music were not also always present. Mr. Bozanic has the ear of an angel, and understands prosody as a range of musical options that will allow him to guide the reader through his poems in a way that enables us to feel . Form never feels forced or strained. These poems are seamless that way, and seamless too in the way the telling is so powerfully akin to the feeling and the doing, and perhaps most importantly, they are unflinchingly faithful to what the poet himself calls that 'urge/that weds all things to all things other'"--Bruce Weigl.
