paperback. Condition: Very Good in Wrappers. No Jacket. Richmond. 2015. April 2015. Omnidawn Publishing/University Press of New England. Advance Uncorrected Proof. Very Good in Wrappers. 9781632430052. 6 x 9'. 96 pages. paperback. keywords: American Literature Poetry. DESCRIPTION - Edited by Garrett Caples, Brenda Hillman, and Paul Ebenkamp. Introduction by Cedar Sigo. The last living member of the original circle of Anarcho-pacifist poets at the birth of the San Francisco Renaissance, Richard O. Moore presents his second book, Particulars of Place. The title poem is a meditation on life in the twilight of American Empire, posing the question of how to live in an age of endless warfare. Throughout, Moore's commitment to social justice mingles with his interest in Wittgenstein's linguistic philosophy, resulting in a poetic amalgam unique to Moore himself. Reflecting a lifetime of devotion to the art of poetry, Particulars of Place confirms Moore's paradoxical position as a newly emerging old master. 'Richard O. Moore's poetry holds firm, as Williams put it, while searching out all corners of the mind with intimacy and conviction, and without adornment or brokered sentiment. His 'Blindness Sonnets' alone are as moving and searing in their even-handed concision as any sense- driven poems I've read in recent years, and the entirety of Particulars of Place makes for an emphatically real, and nonetheless nourishing, world. No other poetry I know of sings from such ground.' - Anselm Berrigan, author of Notes From Irrelevance. inventory #41407.…

paperback. Condition: Very Good in Wrappers. No Jacket. First Edition. Berkeley. 2010. April 2010. University of California Press. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Wrappers. 9780520262447. 136 pages. paperback. keywords: American Literature Poetry. DESCRIPTION - The poems in this selection were chosen from seven full-length manuscripts spanning nearly 60 years. Moore's ties w/Rexroth, the Beats, & Spicer were important to the development of his thought & poetry, but Moore's voice is all his own. The poem 'A Reminiscence' records one aspect of his friendship w/Rexroth in delicately rhymed quatrains, describing an autumn walk by the Russian River in the 40s. Although his work from the 50s & 60s shows affinities w/that of Duncan & Spicer, in poems like 'The Parachutist's Annunciation'Moore's style is eclectic, hard to characterize. And in poems describing nature--e.g., 'Driving to Fort Bragg'--often set along the wild Northern California coast, references to time & history open the poems in surprising ways. Moore developed a signature poetic style: open, spare verse that foregrounds philosophical enquiry. His poetry reflects aspects of his involvement w/the collective consciousness & the idea of language as the intersection of private & public space. His poetry has continued to reflect the values & eclectic free-verse styles of the SF Renaissance writers: a growing interest in experimental lyric; a blend of traditional rhymes w/unfettered prose-poetry ('Columbia 1960'); and a growing interest in the philosophy of language as subject & method. inventory #37626.…
