| Description: | Let’s look beyond Carl Phillips’ credentials—a ton of prizes, critical accolades—and focus, of course, on the language. Short-lined and comma-cadenced, the verses explore the natural world and our routes to physical passion. Sometimes in the same poem. “If the sea could dream,” Phillips writes in one short gem, “and if the sea / were dreaming now, the dream / would be the usual one: of the Flesh.” New to the work of this Wash. U. prof? Pick up Quiver of Arrows: Selected Poems, 1986–2006, just out this spring. |
