Origins

Haunting and memorable, the poems in this collection exhibit a sensuous command of language. They are written in the new formalism, a refreshing change from the spate of free verse that has lately dominated the poetry scene. In each poem, Whipple plays with assonance, rhythm, and intermittent rhyme to intensify his meaning.

Author Biography: George Whipple is the author of Life Cycle and has been profiled in Canadian Author and Poet's Market.
