Bøker av John Findura

"John Findura's Useful Shrapnel is an amazing tour de force of language and sentiment. Moreover, his poetry demonstrates what it is to be a real human being."-Noelle Kocot"John Findura's strange and alluring Useful Shrapnel delights us and teaches us to listen ever more closely, ever more actively, to our various hopes and fears and performances. He writes: "I collect the broken / things and I reform / them into what I think / they should look like / which is often words / that amuse only me"-and in this dance there is a challenge and a process that can teach us what is necessary. "Draw a map of the rooms," he writes, "So we'll know where to hide"-self and other, self and self-in process, transformation-Findura teaches us what it is to feel and think. Useful Shrapnel is wonderful poetry."-Joseph Lease
