Hilarious and brilliant
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
This book contains the hilarious poem "Possible World," a sort of parody of Mallarmé's "Un coup de dés," along with a brilliant memoir and several delightful shorter poems. "The Moor not taken" is also very funny. Buy it together with "Sun Out" to see the very early and the very late Koch side by side.

Koch has followed up his tremendous last collection "New Addresses" with this brilliant collection in which we see the full of range of the powers that made him one of the giants of American poetry - Bell Canto, in Koch's oft-used Ottava Rima, further solidifies his place as a great master of the form.
