Almost Complete Poems

Author: Stanley Moss
Publisher: Seven Stories Press
Category: Poetry Books, Poetry By Individual Poets
Book Format: Hardcover

Moss is oceanic: his poems rise, crest, crash, and rise again like waves. His voice echoes the boom of the Old Testament, the fluty trill of Greek mythology, and the gongs of Chinese rituals as he writes about love, nature, war, oppression, and the miracle of language. Here, all of his works are collected into a single volume for the first time.
