Johnston's third book of poetry returns ad fontes: to sources in Greek and Latin, secret derivations, wellsprings of feelings and forces of nature. Sonically alert, these poems attend to a world with restless curiosity.
Les mer
Uncannily subtle, deft, and precisely cadenced poems quietly brimming with the intensity of curiosity and care.
Within the "young" poetry world Devin Johnston's poems are highly respected and as co-founder of the great Flood Editions he is real hero in that world. It is my goal for this work to be known by a broader readership. Devin will read in NYC, Chicago, St Louis, throughout the Midwest and possibly on the West Coast. I will support these efforts through a wide galley mailing and coop availability.
