<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Walking together Long sings to us--a twenty-first century Whitman-- how we perceive and what we do the broken world matters.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>There is nothing 'still' in the remarkably visceral poems of Alexander Long's third collection, <i>Still Life</i>, and nothing is at rest in these restless and edgy poems. Conversational and kinetic, these poems chart the traces left by the shifting overlays of the templates of literature, rock-and-roll, and contemporary culture. As each poem in <i>Still Life</i> attempts to fix a focus upon a scene or subject, the protean natures under view draw the poet into the eddies and complexities of reflection. This is a powerful and moving collection of poems.-- David St. John</p><p><b>Alexander Long</b>'s books include <i>Vigil</i> and <i>Light Here, Light There</i>. He lives in Hoboken, New Jersey.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><br>"There is nothing "still" in the remarkably visceral poems of Alexander Long's third collection, Still Life, and nothing is at rest in these restless and edgy poems.
