Produktinformationen "An Amiable Reception for the Acrobat"

An Amiable Reception for the Acrobat, Jon Davis's sixth full-length collection of poems, is jarring and beautiful, and in both cases necessarily so. In her praise of its wisdom and irreverence, Pam Houston has described these poems as "a map to hold in our hands as we fly off the end of the world." We advise keeping a copy handy.

Fearless Now & Nameless
The poems in Jon Davis's latest collection, Fearless Now & Nameless, direct his keen eye toward the ironies on which this life so often depends-- the failures of language, the violence of nature, the indifference of death. " Is that what spirit is?" the poet wonders, considering the nature of birds, the thrasher, the finch " humping in the eaves. Gathering straw and string. / Laying the griefstuck delicate eggs." As we read, we find our own eyes grow sharper, better able to take it all in.
