Description

This kaleidoscopic collection of fourteen-line poems is an attempt at mitigating "the modern self-erasure of poetry." In spite of the form, which is one of the most ancient in existence, the originality or consistent weirdness finds expression in sheer style and content. Many of the poems connect to archaeology and the ancient past, possibly as they have never been seen before. Look for the surprise, the double take, the mild smirk, even the kiss. Look for the unusual use of conventional form.

Author Biography:

Egon H. E. Lass has published The Seasons of Tulul, an account of life among the Bedouin of the Judaean Desert (parts of which appeared in the American Scholar), and Wrestling With God, three mystic dramas. He has also published poems in Epicenter, Omphalos, The Kansas Magazine, Passage V, etc. and about forty scientific papers in his capacity as an archaeologist.
