Down and Up: Poems

★★★★★
★★★★★

English

By (author): Clarence Major

In Down and Up, Clarence Major makes use of American and European public places, their character and voice, to construct poems that explore the physical world juxtaposed sharply with the inner world. Sometimes realistic, sometimes dreamlike, these poems are dynamic, universal in theme and acknowledge a debt to the great tradition of modern American poetry. Clear eyed and painterly, they explore wherever Majors fancy takes him. His distinctive voice and compelling spatial and visual approach offer a connection between everyday human occurrences and the physical space they surround. See more
