<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>The seventeenth book of verse from one of America's finest and most acclaimed contemporary poets--winner of the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Award.</p><p>Capturing his inimitable voice--provocative, amusing, understated, and riotous all at once--the poems in <em>Dome of the Hidden Pavilion</em> demonstrate James Tate at his finest. Innovative and fresh, they range in subject from a talking blob to a sobering reminiscence of a war and its aftereffects.</p><p>Though they are diverse in scope, a theme of dialogue and communication--and often miscommunication--links these poems. Accessible yet subtly surrealist, filled with dark wit, dry humor, and a deceptive simplicity, <em>Dome of the Hidden Pavilion</em> confirms Tate's continuing relevance as one of the most celebrated American poets of the modern age.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><p>The seventeenth book of poetry from one of America's finest and most acclaimed contemporary poets</p>Capturing his inimitable voice-provocative, amusing, understated, and riotous-the poems in <em>Dome of the Hidden Pavilion </em>demonstrate James Tate at his finest.

His work is singular in American poetry for marrying goofball humor and childish jouissance to a lyricism that never seems cheap or self-serious-an unusual achievement."--<em>New York Times Book Review</em><br>
