A Halo of Flies

In this thoughtful and sometimes provocative book containing a handful of his previously uncollected poems, award-winning poet Daniel Klawitter reviews the work of some of his poetic peers and shares his thoughts about his own location in the contemporary practice of poetry itself. A hybrid work combining poetry, book review, and short form essay, readers will be treated to an intriguing glimpse into the mind of a poet whose verses have been called both "funny and humane" by the former poet laureate of Colorado, Joseph Hutchison.
