The work of this "eminent, still-wild spirit of Central Europe"
("Publishers Weekly") continues to electrify. In "The Blue Tower,"
language is remade with tenderness and abandon: "Rommel was kissing
heaven's dainty hands and yet / from his airplane above the Sahara
my uncle / Rafko Perhauc still blew him to bits." There is an
effervescence and a sense of freedom to Tomaž Salamun's poetry that
has made him an inspiration to successive generations of American
poets, "a poetic bridge between old European roots and the American
adventure" (Associated Press). Trivial and monumental, beautiful
and grotesque, healing, ferocious, mad: "The Blue Tower" is an
essential volume.
