His feeling toward the natural world is genuine--but hardly naive. Looking at the branches he also looks 'in the dark, in mind.' 'I notice the glow of the light-green, ' this poet says. There is a dash of Dylan Thomas in this lyric, and much of Strous's own wisdom in lines such as 'Carpentry of these trees--\/they are so simple.' But readers will quickly realize that on the page such simplicity is only seeming. It looks simple because a great deal of work was put into the words\"--Ilya Kaminsky.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Allen Strous\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1935218131\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781935218135\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Backwaters Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/29\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 84\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.20d","brand":"Allen Strous","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48153871974655,"sku":"9781935218135","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_610e9ed4-8822-474c-83ae-235341d18b0b.jpg?v=1770786399","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/tired-allen-strous-9781935218135","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
