Poems
by John Koethe
From award-winning poet John Koethe, a rich and resonant new collection that moves easily between autobiographical anecdote and philosophical reflection.
"Starred Review. Koethe manages to take in an expansive view from the confines of a single, sometimes claustrophobic perspective; it's a feat only poetry could accomplish." - Publishers Weekly
