"In his new collection of poetry, Rice is an expert practitioner of the paranoiac-surreal . . . . His true subject is the uneasy equation between horror and beauty, the 'liquification of flame' and the 'liquid of order.' He is often capable of delivering the instructive surprises of the best poetry."
--Graham Christian, Library Journal

Hardcover. Etat : Near Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Fine. 1st Edition. FEAR ITSELF, Poems by Stan Rice, hardcover with unclipped dust jacket, stated first edition, inscribed by author on half-title page (November 1996), 1995. BOOK CONDITION: near fine. The text block is in fine condition, with no tears, dogears, or marks. There is no bookplate nor signature of a prior owner. Not a library book, but the dot on the lower edge may signify it is a remainder. The green cloth boards are in fine condition. The dust jacket is in fine condition. 9 ½ x 6 ½, 93 pages, 14 ounces. XX [From the inner flaps] Stan Rice's new book of poems is faithful to the strong, expressionist thrust of his most recent collection, Singing Yet: New and Selected Poems, published in 1992. FEAR ITSELF is equally arresting in the ominous visions it invokes - as though the book's title is to be taken literally, and the reader to be both engaged and disquieted. The Offering To the somethingness/Which prevents the nothingness/Like Homer's wild boar/From thrashing this way and that/Its white tusks/Through human beings/Like crackling stalks/And to nothing less/I offer this suffering of my father. XX Stan Rice was for many years associated with San Francisco State University, as Professor of English and Creative Writing, Assistant Director of the Poetry Center, and Chairman of the Creative Writing Department. His third book of poems won him the Edgar Allan Poe Award of the Academy of American Poets, which acknowledged the continuing achievement of a poet under forty-five. He has also received the Joseph Henry Jackson Award and a writing fellowship from the National Endowment for the Arts. He lives in New Orleans. Inscribed by Author(s). N° de réf. du vendeur 002330
