Synopsis
Catch My Breath represents an illumination and expansion of the biographical myth that Lally has written into his poetry. The breath to be caught is the same that gives life to his poetry. Terence Winch, Washington Review"But who else, writing like a tough, can be tender with such grace? the tenderness is in every line, and flows from his intelligence so directly it makes you believe Mind can give rise to Good." -Gerald Bums, Southwest Review"Catch My Breath is a sort of collected sayings of Michael Lally from 1954 to 1974. Included are the famous South Orange Sonnets, important for their original sonnet form and as individualistic models that describe growing up strange in America. Other selections of the book treat Lally's childhood and adolescence, moving toward his political struggles of the 1960s and into sexual and cultural politics of the 70s. The book, a mirror image of an entire society, changing and observing its own change, is Lally's best." -John Jacob, Booklist, American Library Association"For someone who was heavily into politics (he even ran for sheriff in Iowa on the Peace and Freedom ticket), he's able to write poems which are political without being didactic." -Rochelle Ratner, The Soho Weekly News
