Enola Gay

2000
American PoetryPoetry (poetic works by one author)New York Times reviewed

"Some devastation has struck the soul and the earth alike, and in Enola Gay, his second volume of poems, Mark Levine surveys the disaster. Here the traditional resources of lyric poetry are brought to bear on historical and cultural landscapes ravaged by imponderable events. The landscapes of these poems - marshes, fields, shorelines, cities - have been vacated, as John Keats might say, "one minute past." With an unwavering gaze, in Enola Gay Levine sifts through the residue produced by a great and terrible collapse."--BOOK JACKET.
