Heroic Age is a brilliant poem sequence that deserves to be read from beginning to end in one sitting. It's worth the commitment. Heroic Age is a startling journey from the physical to the metaphysical, the historical to the hysterical. These poems offer one surprise after another: funny, profound, insightful, lyrical, surreal and luminous. There's a narrative/poetic arc that should be appreciated; every page will have a surprise you won't forget, a surprise you'll want to return to again and again.
