Modulations

Poetry. Andrei Condrescu says of Martin, He is the chronicler of the empty dynamism of this culture, but he knows its joys too. In the fast-paced world of his verse there beats a fierce and oddly tonic heart. Full of the energy readers and listeners have come to expect from Richard Martin, the leaping, compassionate, and incisive poems in MODULATIONS will appeal to a wide range of readers. It's not often there's a poet so simply a pleasure and so secure in what he has to offer. Martin knows what he's doing and has that dependable virtue(Robert Creeley). Martin's awards for poetry include a National Endowment for the Arts fellowship. He currently resides in Boston, MA.
