Synopsis

In his selected and new poetry volume ACADEMY OF DREAMS, Glover Davis transports a reader with precision and grace. These are gorgeous poems of masterful pacing and sound, carrying us deeply into a wide span of considerations - earthbound and ethereal at once. Reckoning with mysteries of time and haunting legacies, never abandoning a compassion broad enough to contemplate even an anonymous graffiti artist drawing "energy from a desire/for rituals," the great calm and care of a lifetime of profound reflective insight rivets every line. For decades Glover Davis has been writing a poetry that commands traditional as well as open forms, one informing the other-a poetry both myth-driven, and a vision anchored in experience. Davis's poems offer elegies and insights with a clarity of imagination and deep humanity. From his tour-de-force nine section poem "August Fires" in the '70s to a remarkable section of new poems, Academy of Dreams is a masterwork.
