Oberlin College Press has always championed the prose poem,
publishing such stellar examples as Russell Edson's The Tunnel,
Beckian Fritz Goldberg's Egypt from Space, and Jeffrey Jeffrey
Skinner's 2016 prize-winner Chance Divine. James Haug's Riverain is
a masterful addition to that list. From the deadpan pastoral of
"Cows Are a Good Idea" to quizzical fables like "Silent River,"
this collection is mysterious, hilarious, and utterly
unpredictable. Pulitzer Prize-winning poet James Tate described
Haug's previous collection as "marvelous poems, ones that help us
see what might have been or could have been, in a world full of
light." These new prose poems are equally revelatory, illuminating
the natural world, contemporary culture, and New England
metaphysics in witty and heartbreaking ways.
