History (and pre-) - albert goldbarth

These poems are set in, or arise from, the past but, with Goldbarths characteristic precision, insight, and narrative intelligence, springboard into a conjunction of thought and heart that reminds readers that the core of being human has never changed.

Against an era and a society that prostrates itself before technology, this book calls readers to remember Eternity--capital intended--and believes we cant be done with lingering about, and perhaps learning from, whats come before.
