Lord Byron`s Foot - Poems Hardback
by George Green
Hardback
Description
George Green is a pop-culture Juvenal, whose satiric strain is both trenchant and elegiac.
The poems in Lord Byron’s Foot move deftly between the back alleys of Trieste and the parking lots of his hometown in Pennsylvania, between Chichester Cathedral and the downtown streets and parks of Manhattan where he has lived for three decades.
Green’s range and depth of knowledge in these technically accomplished poems might be intimidating if not for the disarming delight and passion with which he engages his material and the bizarrely raucous humor in which the poetry often revels. Lord Byron’s Foot is the twelfth winner of the annual New Criterion Poetry Prize.
The New Criterion is recognized as one of the foremost contemporary venues for poetry that pays close attention to form.
Building upon its commitment to serious poetry, The New Criterion established this annual prize in 2000.
