Hadean Eclogues

by Frederick Turner

On This Page

Description

An eclogue is a sort of picnic in words. In this latest book of poetry by one of the leading practitioners of Expansive Poetry, Turner asks in his introduction, "Suppose there could be a poetry, even a scientific description of reality, that left undamaged the principles, the honor, the history and myth, the ritual, the intellectual criteria of believers and unbelievers ... as long as they were people of depth and thought and imagination?"
