Ostraca (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798987218051)

ostrica, Lyman Grant's ninth book of poems, is a fragmented meditation on nature, gardening, spirituality, poetry's legacy, and the call of the here and now. Situating himself in his own garden of verses, Grant re-scripts many of his favorite lines of poetry, from Hesiod to Shakespeare, Coleridge, Millay and Bishop, on to Gwendolyn Brooks and Terrance Hayes, who provide the inspiration for the book through Hayes' Golden Shovel form. Lyrical and often intensely musical, Grant's poems are like little bird songs escaping over the fence of your neighbor's yard.
