Description: "The thirty-five poems in Player Piano are clear yet complicated, unsettling, sometimes mysterious. A poet who works with a variety of elegantly controlled free verse forms, Conrad Hilberry is chiefly interested in themes of metamorphosis and transformation. He effortlessly evokes alien, exotic landscapes, particularly those of Latin America. He is a magician with the shuffling and dealing of images, playing at a poem as if it were a deck of cards."--BOOK JACKET.
