Summary
A poet descended from the New York School, Dobby Gibson's award-winning debut is witty and expansive, driven by precise, interconnected abstractions. Gibson writes about desire in American life, observing, "Amid the middleness, / there's the feeling / that anything can be seen / and nothing reached," seeking his truths in misunderstandings and the relentless Midwestern winter.
