Recenzii

Citation for David Lloyd's co-winning entry to the Poetry Society of America's year 2000 Robert H. Winner Memorial Award David Lloyd's "Sestinas for the Everyday Apocalypse" takes one of the most rigid forms -- one that in most hands is clumsy and boring -- turning it flexible, muscular and dramatically satisfying. Despite Lloyd's range of variations, we have the sense of an established poetic "line" and of a working correspondence between syntax and music. More important, the best of these ten poems -- above all, the final sestina -- address the fearful dilemmas, our common losses and triumphs, with an unforced wisdom at once convincing and beautiful. -- W. D. Snodgrass
