Title: King of a hundred horsemen
Description: "King of a Hundred Horsemen is the first of Marie Etienne's books to be published in English, and it introduces a major voice in world literature to a new audience. Etienne's poetry is inspired by the synthesis of the contemporary and the classical, the tragic and the mundane, the everyday transformed by the prisms of myth and history. In this book, through a complex but playful reinterpretation of the sonnet form, she moves from the jungles of Indochina to the Atlanta airport, tuning in to writers' voices and painters' visions, in a quest with dream-intensity both through and out of time."--Jacket.
