Bøker av Allan Peterson

Highly visual and verbally chromatic, eschewing punctuation and rigorously open-ended, these poems pursue intimate recognitions in compact forms energized by intuitive jumps.

Features poems that aim to remind us that we are all in the thick of things, the rich and complicated givens. This title moves from subjects as diverse as the surface of Europa to a tiny spider in a tear of wallpaper, and from Pythagoras at Tyre to the wings of a dragonfly.
