WorksLast Voyage: Poems of Giovanni Pascoli
(Red Hen Press, forthcoming) A strong influence on the poems of Cesar Pavese, as the father of the image story, Pascoli was popular in his time (1858-1913) as a classicist and narrative poet. He has largely been neglected by modern poets until this translation of his more lyric poems and his long Homeric poems. Voice of the Empty Notebook
(Finishing Line Press, 2007) This chapbook was a finalist in both The Center for Book Arts and Finishing Line Press contests. Part of this chapbook was nominated for a Pushcart Prize by Runes. Three poems from Voice of the Empty Notebook won the Iowa Poetry Award from The Iowa Review, (“The Empty Notebook and Code Alert”, “The Empty Notebook and Denial”, and “The Empty Notebook Interrogates Itself”). State of Blessed Gluttony
(Red Hen Press, 2004) This collection won the Benjamin Saltman Prize. Several of the poems in this collection won individual prizes: Discovery/The Nation (“Laurel and Hardy and the Queen of Heaven at Waterloo”, “Love Song of the Loon”, and “After Disappearance”), Spoon River Poetry Review (“Murdered Girl”, “Welcome to the Hotel Ukrainia”, and “Annunciation”). The Hand Waves Goodbye
(Main Street Rag, 2002) The publisher printed this chapbook as a result of their 2001 chapbook contest. Several of the poems in this collection won prizes from Tennessee Writers’ Alliance, (“Saturday Morning at the River Run Café” and “Brassai Photographs”), Glimmertrain (“Sea Cure”), Delta Review (“French Toast”) and Atlanta Review (“Dear Ulysses”). |
