Poetry. Bone-spare, rhythmicall rigorous, and quietly intense, Eric Pankey's new book ORACLE FIGURES is a dazzling feat, a spellbinding journey that keeps looping us back to the beginning of the world"-Arthur Sze. "The poem is the human eye that, from the theater's back row, seems goat-like in the devil mask"-from the poem "Improvisation." Eric Pankey is the author of five previous books, including For the New Year, which won the Walt Whitman Award from the Academy of American Poets, and Cenotaph, which won the Poetry Award from the Library of Virginia. A professor of English at George Mason University, he lives with his wife and daughter in Fairfax, Virginia.
