Book Synopsis
This is a remarkable biographical poem on the life of the dynamic and controversial American painter. The narrative chronicles the reckless, adventurous and often desperate life of this 20th century genius, from his beginnings in the American northwest, through his pioneering of a revolutionary new painting technique that came to known as Abstract Expressionism, to his death at the wheel of a car on long island at the age of 44. Written entirely in iambic trimeter, Gray's biographical poem bursts with an energy and spontaneity that reflects Pollock's painting.
