A Field of First Things - Paperback

"There is a profusion of sublime recognitions in this, the latest of Greg Pape's numerous collections that is perhaps the capstone to his fine career as a poet. His book is a furling face of the mounting wave of his entire life, the sweep of a fine and articulate nature, its torque of fulminating emotions, and the sweet foam of joy with its glister of gladness even in the troughs of sorrow. Greg Pape is my kinsman and brother, myself made otherwise by all his wisdom." -Garrett Hongo, author of The Perfect Sound
