Guided by the wandering spirit of Bashō, some of the travel poems in this collection are wistful; others reflect on harsh realities experienced under the spell of wanderlust. Along the way, there are encounters with a variety of people-neighbors, relatives, strangers-that might be described as instances of synchronicity: encounters that seemingly offer significance beyond the random. Still other poems take their cues from cultural\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003emanifestations of Americana: music, artwork, literature, film. In this collection of poems, Stephen Benz continues his probing explorations into the topographies of Americana.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stephen Benz\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Steel Toe Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/16\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 108\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.32lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.26d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781949540505\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eBenz, Stephen:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Stephen Benz has published four books of creative nonfiction, including Topographies and Reading the Signs (both from EtruscanPress).
