Aprašymas

Albert DeGenova, Editor, After Hours, Chicago: "Jim Davis' Object Permanence seems a life's work, but one realizes that Davis is a poet who finds poetry in every second of his life-this collection is just the beginning. This is poetry of image and story that transcends the ordinary with extraordinary insight. Despite an unmistakable Midwestern sensibility echoing Sandburg through farm, fields, and railroads, Davis has a keen sense of the contemporary condition: homelessness, lost dreams, empty loves. Davis expresses where his poetry comes from and why this book should be read with his poem 'Ephemera: ' The best and worst things are often unforeseen. / There are those we cannot name or will not, swirling in / varied pockets of deep night or no-one-looking."

Bryan Crumpley, Editor, Dali's Lovechild: "Great work from a great Chicago writer."

Laurence W. Thomas, Editor, Third Wednesday: Jim Davis paints a broad canvas with tiny images and symbols, moving from the minuscule to the cosmic and back again with athletic agility. These poems reveal relationships in surreal juxtapositions that whisk the reader from the known into a world of unexpected revelations."
