by Barry Goldensohn (Author)
Barry Goldensohn's latest collection, The Hundred Yard Dash Man: New and Selected Poems, spans five decades of his poetry. The poems are erudite, pained, exultant, meditative or bawdy--and sometimes all of these moods at once. Sometimes the march of character is fictional, sometimes historical, and many times personal. But whether concentrating on painter's brush, photographer's lens, or musicians' instrument, Goldensohn spreads widely over eras and cultures, with a large number of poems following the flesh through loves carnal, consecrated, and domestic: among the most tender are poems dedicated to family and kin.
