Description
Sean Corbin's devastating poems offer us a fierce lyricism, a dark and lively wit giving voice to the emergencies of the self. In Corbin's world the speaker shares a relentless examination and embrace of the traumas that consume us at the shrines of the ordinary--the bedroom, the kitchen, the living room, the car in traffic, the back yard. The voices of these poems earn their grim and graceful epiphanies in language that is fresh, tough, and daring in its inventions. This is the poetry of a grown man facing the crises of mind and body with verve and relentless courage. The Leper Dreams of Snow is an aesthetic and humanist victory for all of us who still believe in the edifying powers of poetry.
