About the Book

Poetry. Michael Ruby's poems are an intersection of the various possibilities of poetry and language. Many artistic movements echo through these pages-surrealism, constructivism, expressionism, confessional poetry, language poetry, even I Crepuscolari and the Prairie School. There are elegies for the early dead, texts to accompany artworks, investigations of meaning and parts of speech. There are transcriptions of inner voices and of the ordinary flow of thoughts and road signs on a night drive. These vivid poems take place on "5th Ave. and Carroll St. in Brooklyn" and "in one of Lithuania's doomed shetls," but also where a dog might play "Schoenberg in the silver and black plazas, balancing the Santa Maria, the Mayflower and the first slave ship on this head."
