Descriere completă

"Doubles" is at once tough-minded and urbane, veering from lyricism to street slang, oscillating with the beat of the American city. As his title suggests, Polito's world is one of doubling, simulation, impersonation, and mimicry--a shrewd vision of urban life.Following are a few lines from his poem "Those Fireflies, for Instance" (which originally appeared in "Ploughshares" 5/2): ...Night lurches, repeats itself, Sees double in our little Glassed-in terrace garden. Winds down, as fog calms the city Spun from the blue smoke Running circles around us...Close one eye and think: Those fireflies, for instance, Winking at us as they luxuriate In the leaves of our tiny elastic ash, Their cool light calls back bright dayAs happily as they reflect the constellations Turning beyond the blue dome, motionless, above us.
