One of our most acclaimed poets wrestles with the issues - love,
hope, memory, faith - that have occupied him "in the second half of
my sixth decade on beautiful earth". The centerpiece of Gerald
Stern's ninth collection is a long poem titled "Hot Dog" named for
a beautiful street woman who lives in and around Tompkins Square
Park. Other characters in this poem are St. Augustine, Walt
Whitman, Noah, Gerald Stern himself, and a ninety-year-old black
preacher from the Midwest. In "Hot Dog", and throughout this
collection, Stern examines the long journey towards redemption and
justice and the bitter struggle - and battle - over our minds and
souls.
