Jeffrey Woodward, IN PASSING: SELECTED POEMS, 1974-2007.
This representative selection of poems affords a first comprehensive survey of the works of a daring poet who, far from settling upon easy formal or thematic solutions, has consistently challenged himself, both with traditional and experimental means. The poems herein progress through a dazzling array of motifs and meters and point to the restless nature of their author, always reluctant to repeat former experiments and eager to explore new terrain.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Jeffrey Woodward, with the exception of abbreviated stints in California, New Mexico and West Virginia, has resided in the Upper Great Lakes Region for much of his life. He graduated with honors from Eastern Michigan University, having majored in language arts (linguistics) and classical political theory. His poems and articles have been published widely in North America, Europe and Asia in various periodicals.
