The voices we encounter in this book speak on the verge of disappearance, from places marked by disintegration and terror. Christopher Bakken's poems are acts of conjuring. They move from the real political landscapes of Greece, Italy, and Romania, into more surreal spaces where history comes alive and the summoned dead speak. In the formally diverse long poem, "Kouros/Kore," but also in this book's terse and harrowing dream songs, Bakken writes with devastating force, at every turn "Guilty of the crime of praise" while "begging for an antidote to beauty." 410 0$aPitt poetry series. 517 1 $aEternity and oranges 606 $aAmerican poetry$y21st century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aAmerican poetry 676 $a811.608 700 $aBakken$b Christopher$0949689 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910466110903321 996 $aEternity & oranges$92146522 997 $aUNINA
