April at the Ruins: Poems
No Customer Reviews
"Celebrated poet and professor Lawrence Raab's tenth collection of poetry is one of mysterious and visionary sight, quiet music, and the unaffected stillness of reflection that is common to masterpieces capable of holding their potency for generations."
--Marina Brown, Los Angeles Review
"Every poem in April at the Ruins is a powerhouse: rich, quietly essential, profoundly lucid. Many have flavors of the best parables or folk tales, bringing us into intimate relation with mysteries and transformations abounding around and inside us.... Raab's sense of irony is unerring. These poems prove that one of the only true forms of consolation is giving darkness its due."
--Amy Gerstler
" T]his collection isn't just nostalgic. Instead, it is full of wonder. Wonder and the ability to step through wonder into a whole new place."
