About the Author

(In place of bio) Kevin McGRATH is the one of the most truly analytical poets writing in America today. Abstract and intellectually post-modern yet deeply grounded within the poetic traditions of both East and West. His perceptions of the vicissitudes in human desire and the role that language plays in this drama are breathtaking. “ ... Poetry that is more appealing as life than as ‘culture’, and that is very rare. These are fine poems, technically advanced, with their blade buried deeply in the body politic.” Peter Levi “For those who can love, all at once, the words of classical poetry, English renaissance verse, contemporary Greek poetry’s passionate love of place, and song in its purest vocal form: the work of Kevin McGrath will bring unforgettable delight to both the heart and the mind.” Gregory Nagy
