Carousel: A Book of Second Thoughts

by George Murray

EXILE EDITIONS | November 1, 2000 | Trade Paperback

At times satirical, ironic and tenderly sincere, this collection charts the wandering course of faith by examining the death records of a diverse cast of characters. Presented as eulogies, elegies, obituaries, and panegyrics, these poems explore the cyclical nature of belief and loss, living and rebirth, with lyrical regret and narrative celebration. Fragments of memory, excerpts from longer stories told and retold: this is how we remember.

If you don't read this book you'll get cancer and die. Or perhaps you'll be mauled by a lion...and die. And then you'll be sorry, because you won't even know how or where they'll bury you! Don't know what I'm talking about? Read the book. It's dark, funny, technically accomplished. Here is a new poet writing poems that will change the way you thought you thunk about death. Dazzling.
