In Save the Last Dance, Gerald Stern gives us a stunning collection
of his intimately personal yet always universal, and always
surprising poems, rich with humor and insight. Shorter lyric poems
in the first two parts continue the satirical and often redemptive
vision of his last collection, Everything Is Burning, while never
failing to carve out new emotional territory. In the third part, a
long poem called "The Preacher," Stern takes the book of
Ecclesiastes as a starting point for a meditation on loss,
futility, and emptiness, represented here by the concept of a
"hole" that resurfaces throughout."
