He is a poet of extreme contrasts, offering us the dregs of despair, yet instantly recalling hope in the beauty of nature or in a moment in time when all is right, when we realize grace. In “For the Leapers” the narrator relates, “We will fall past the angels, \/ we will fall from such height, \/ our tears will lift up from our eyes. \/ We will fall straight through hell. \/ And then we will rise.” Hodgen’s poems roam through history, religion, man-made disasters, baseball, pop culture, and Wal-Marts, on paths that come full circle with remarkable completeness, maturity, and dexterity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University of Pittsburgh Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47118885322992,"sku":"9780822990758","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780822990758_p0.jpg?v=1763751672","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780822990758","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
