Help Me, Information is propelled by the speed and motion of the poems that define earlier acclaimed books by David Kirby, poems that move the way the mind does on a good day, puddle-jumping from one topic to another and then coming in for a nice soft landing.
Colloquial in tone, balancing narrative breadth with precise detail, Kirby's poetry displays his voracious curiosity about history, science, literature, and popular culture. Yet here he also reinvents himself with poems that recall the compactness of Jack Gilbert, the sweep of Allen Ginsberg, and the introspection of Frank O'Hara. Help Me, Information presents a fresh Kirby, familiar yet new.Languages:EnglishPublisher:LSU PressISBN-13:9780807175941ISBN-10:807175943UPC:9780807175941Book Category:Poetry, HumorBook Subcategory:AmericanSize:9.20 x 7.70 x 0.70 inchesWeight:0.7011Product ID:SCKCHQY3W6
