David Giannini author of Faces Somewhere Wild, The Future Only Rattles When You Pick it Up, In a Moment We May Be Strangely Blended, has his latest book of poems, Mayhap, reviewed by Joseph Hutchison.
No American poet since William Stafford is as quotable as David Giannini. A tendency toward aphoristic piquancy layers and complicates all of his work. It’s not that he rejects simplicity; it’s simply that the world and the mind that perceives it are not simple, and Giannini is committed to complexity as part of his continual reach toward wholeness.
