"A poet of direct speech and muscular lexicon."--Quill & Quire Nimbly slipping between personae, masks, and moods, the prosody-driven poems of Sum weigh the volatility and mutability of the self against the forces of habit, instinct, and urge. With homages to Hopkins, Graves, Wislawa Szymborska, Paul Muldoon, and more, and in allusion-dappled, playfully sprung stanzas, this third book from poet and critic Zachariah Wells both wears its influences openly and spins a sound texture all its own, in a collection far greater than its parts. Zachariah Wells is the author of two collections of poetry and a book of criticism (Career Limiting Moves, 2014).
Zachariah Wells is the author of three collections of poetry (Unsettled, Track & Trace), and Sum), as well as a children's book (Anything But Hank!, with Rachel Lebowitz), and a collection of critical essays (Career Limiting Moves). He is also the editor of Jailbreaks: 99 Canadian Sonnets and The Essential Kenneth Leslie. His poems have been translated into Bosnian and Spanish and adapted into operatic songs by composer Erik Ross. He lives with his family in Halifax, Nova Scotia.
