Beschreibung:
Gary Gildner is the author of nearly two dozen poetry collections and works of prose and professor emeritus of English at Drake University in Des Moines, Iowa. Among the many awards Gildner has received for his poetry and short stories are the Robert Frost Fellowship from the Bread Loaf Writers' Conference, two National Endowment Fellowships, five Yaddo Fellowships, the MacDowell Colony Fellowship, and the William Carlos Williams Prize.
"Never obscure or self-consciously 'poetical, ' and very often amusing, Gildner's lines are sure to provide multiple shocks (and laughs) of recognition, as he retraces choice patches all over the American scene. . . . Both the author and his subjects are fine people to spend some time with." "--Booklist"
