Synopsis

"Who but a poet in joy of himself can write of the discordant facts to make of them a dance of words across the page. He offers no resolution, no turning of things right side up, except to address them gallantly, with style, in entertainment of the facts. Here is a generosity with life and because of it a poet, Charlie Smith, richly gifted." --David Ignatow
