From the rear cover
'Within the confines of these tight, hard-edged forms, Turner Cousteau compresses the precise observations, wry perceptions, and worldly wisdom of metaphysical wit. He surveys a variety of subjects--often warily, usually with dry humor--air travel, 'scenic' spots at home and abroad, a comic book fair, theatrics in a leather bar, the Bride of Godzilla, 'Dr. Jekyll and Dr. Jekyll.' 'Scheherazade in South Dakota.' Alphonse unenviable task of completing Turandot--finding incongruities and ironic connections which his agile mind fashions to curious effect.

Description:
Paperback / softback. New. "With my eyes closed, I might have guessed a collaboration between William Empson and Noel Coward. But of course no one could have made up Turner Cassity but himself. The man is a wizard. In these new poems, each as clear and mysterious as crystal, he has conjured all sorts of miniature wonders and nasty home truths. It is the devil's own sorcery-and pure enchantment."-J. D. McClatchy
