Book Synopsis

The latest collection from Griffin Poetry Prize-winning poet A. F. Moritz.

In Sequence, the reader accompanies the poet step after step and breath after breath through a haunting and mercurial world that shimmers like sun on sand. Alternating moments of spare clarity with deep narrative flashes, the poem wanders the borders of the self, pursuing the eternal moment through imagined landscapes and the lush world waiting outside the writer's window. This is poetry of intense observation, finely tuned to a pattern that is sustained with breaks and returns, alive with eros and a hunger for Breton's "convulsive beauty."

Sequence dazzles as it seeks the great mystery, while remaining fully invested in our life of contingency and time.

Moritz's exquisite control of line length, among other techniques, creates unique forms, and the poems themselves move smoothly between modes. -- Candace Fertile * Quill & Quire *
