Ecstacies and Elegies

The poems of Ecstacies and Elegies are as engaging and virtuosic in their range of styles as they are generous in their imagery. In his first full length volume of poems, a celebrated debut, we encounter a startling overlay of immemorial myth and ephemeral urban encounter. Spirits of the classical world jostle with the sensory stimuli of contemporary domestic life. Desire tours a terrain of abysses.
