". . . full of known earthly places like the Sahara, ‘Old Russia,’ and Heathrow Airport, jumbled together like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle map of the world. Art, artifacts, things, and people partake of each other’s humanity and objecthood. Yet there is nothing of the dispassionate butterfly-pinner about: these objects are sympathetically alive, parts of an encompassing order, like Marianne Moore’s ‘Nine Nectarines’ . . . these poems are unlike any I’ve ever read: deep, beautiful, and laugh-out-loud funny."—John Ashbery
Chris Edgar ’s work has appeared in Best American Poetry 2000 and 2001 , Boston Review, Fence, Mississippi Review, Shiny , and The Germ . Edgar won the 2000 Boston Review Poetry Prize, and he is the author of Cheap Day Return (illustrations by Trevor Winkfield; The Cube Press, 2002).
