William Logan is widely admired as one of our foremost masters of
free verse as well as formal poetry; his classical verve conjures
up the past within the present and the foreshadowings of the
present within the past. In their sculptural turns, their pleasure
in the glimmerings of the sublime while rummaging around in the
particular, the poems in Rift of Light, Logan's eleventh
collection, are a master class of powerful feeling embedded in
language. Ranging from Martin Luther to an abandoned crow, from a
midwife toad to a small-town janitor, from actress Louise Brooks to
Durer's stag beetle, Logan shows an encyclopedic attention to the
passing world. Dry, witty, skeptical, these dark and acidic poems
prove a constant and informing delight.
