Fantastic poems- wiity, droll, beautiful, dreamlike, clear. Alexander Pope meets surrealism & is 'belated' & 'contemporary' at the same time. Make YOUR day!Tony Towle is one of the best of the second generation New York School poets. Winner of the first Frank O'Hara Award. His work is very distinctive within the NY School range- urbane, hilariously ornate, selfconscious, lyrical, discursive, a sensibility that is both Romantic &, at times, neo-Augustan, Pop & high-brow, thoughtful & playful, rhapsodic & dry. A really terrific poet. |
