Produktbeschreibung
Poetry. One subject of Lee Busby's poetry is love: careless love, love done and gone, blood-deep love of place, love of the gods of song and verse, the anchoring love of true friendship, the healthy love we glibly categorize as self-esteem. All these, in his first collection 5TH GENERATION IMMIGRANT, go a long way towards kindness and care, through a troubling, troubled voice free of postured affirmation and open to such doubts that are prerequisites to faith. And all these are governed by humor and authenticated by a conversational idiom lifted at points by stunning imagery to a visionary intensity. The reader will know far more about poetry and the world after reading this remarkable collection.
