Long neglected or scoffed at by poetry purists, the prose poem is now taking its rightful place as a distinct and accepted genre in American letters. Johnson's work as editor of 'The Prose Poem: An International Journal', did much to legitimatise this genre. This book, his second collection of prose poetry, is filled with the mystery, humour, and pathos that make this form so appealing and so accessible.
