Even So: New and Selected Poems

"I was struck by the wisdom of this work, a quiet wisdom that inheres in images so fully imagined that one can never forget them. The language has been so thoroughly purified that truth becomes, in the telling, austerely beautiful." — Jay Parini

"There's no word for what Young does, only for what he accomplishes — the capturing of small, daily miracles." — Dorianne Laux

Gary Young is one of the country's best known prose poets and his unique, sinuous, brief style has a flavor all its own. This collection includes work selected from six previously published volumes and two unpublished sequences of new work.

Gary Young lives in Santa Cruz, California.
