Description

Book Synopsis
Offers a collection of formal poems and measured free verse unified by its investigation of our poetic, mythic, and scientific fascination with birds of prey: hawks, eagles, owls, vultures, and falcons. Drawing on his own experience working at a raptor rehabilitation center, the author shows these killing birds to be mirrors for humanity.

Trade Review
"Citizen is a book of ambitious poems, technically and thematically, but Andrew Feld has the discipline and the synthesizing intellect necessary to pull them off." (New York Times Book Review, on Citizen)"
