Description: "In meditations, songs, slapstick sequences, sonnets, narratives, and tightly carved fragments, Zachary Savich explores the conflicts between romance and reality, between inventing a new world and staying true to this one. Relishing both traditional and experimental poetics, he takes refreshing, ecumenical risks to show the "strange grace / of bells that ring with a rag's polishing."" --Book Jacket.
