Written over seven years, Red Strawberry Leaf meditates on the spirit's engagement with the world in an allusive, personal style, in which neither the personal nor the tribal holds pride of place. Scattered touches of apocalypse and dark collective inventories serve only to highlight moments of burnished, lyric brilliance. These challenging poems will reward readers many times over. Review \"Sometimes it seems like Peck is equipped with a pair of X-Ray Spex devised by a mad-scientist version of some synoptic historian of the West, a Victor Frankenstien crossed with a Hegel or an Arnold Toynbee. Whatever he looks at, he sees past the surface and into its historical and cultural context.\" -- Robert Archambeau - Pleiades About the Author John Peck is a freelance editor and translator and a practicing Jungian analyst. He is the author of eight books of poems, most recently of Red Strawberry Leaf: Selected Poems, 1994-2001, published in the Phoenix Poets series by the University of Chicago Press, and a cotranslator of C.
