by Geoffrey Nutter (Author)
Nutter is a true believer in the power of art, which is the power that produces these beautiful and vital poems.--Mark Levine
In his fourth collection, Geoffrey Nutter beckons us into his lush imagination--where bygone monoliths cast shadows over new landscapes--a world of dreams, rife with unexpected encounters.
We are everywhere, instantly; the electric stations crackle on full power, running
on the ghost impulses of the waterfalls.
Geoffrey Nutter is the author of Christopher Sunset, Water's Leaves and Other Poems, and A Summer Evening. He currently teaches at New York University.
