"For many years I have dreamt of a book of poems that inhabits the trashy, utopian culture of Southern California with the verbal panache and tensile brilliance of a poet from the remote past: Aphra Behn, say, or Robert Herrick. Yet even this torsion of mind and subject matter would not fully explain the amalgam of ferocity, intelligence, and pathos animating Gail Wronsky's latest book: the untimely but fetchingly up-to-date meditations of a true Metaphysical of the Pacific Rim.

Description

"For many years I have dreamt of a book of poems that inhabits the trashy, utopian culture of Southern California with the verbal panache and tensile brilliance of a poet from the remote past: Aphra Behn, say, or Robert Herrick. Yet even this torsion of mind and subject matter would not fully explain the amalgam of ferocity, intelligence, and pathos animating Gail Wronsky's latest book: the untimely but fetchingly up-to-date meditations of a true Metaphysical of the Pacific Rim. These are poems of exquisite mastery and ripeness. If there were justice, even poetic justice—and these poems warn us continually of the foolishness of that hope--Imperfect Pastorals would be received for what it is: the finest collection of one of our most gifted and exhilarating poets."
-Daniel Tiffany, author of Privado and The Dandelion Clock
