Book synopsis

Poetry. Completed in six months, on the eve of the poet's twenty-ninth birthday, ACCIDENTAL MONSTERS was Eric Basso's first collection of poems. The author of the critically acclaimed GOLEM TRIPTYCH carries us through a world where landscapes and interiors merge. This is a poetry of convergences, set in the time-warp which traps that disquieting moment between the dream and the awakening: beyond the last step/ where a soft part of the/ floor had turned to dust/ red pupils glowed like/ round cinders in/ the dark (Rudimentary Gods). Eric Basso was born in Baltimore in 1947. He is the author of twenty-one plays, and his poems have been published in the Chicago Review, Central Park, Asylum, and numerous other publications.
