Overview
Overview
Poetry. "What impresses one first about David J. Rothman is his immense imaginative and intellectual range, but the more one reads his striking and exuberant poetry the more deeply one feels its emotional force and quiet but genuine ferocity. He is an Apollonian touched by the divine madness of Dionysus. Diverse, demanding, and delightful, his poems abundantly reward the reader's attention." Dana Gioia
"You've never read a book like this one, crackling with comedy and drama, colloquial, breezy and bitingly Byronic. Here we find characters including God, a Demon, a Muse, and a hero, an ordinary modern man. We have a vital panoply of good and evil served up by a poet of cultivated earthiness, 'mud mixed with wonder.' Even in the face of suffering, David Rothman dares us to 'live large. Go big. Get tough.' Here is an abundance and energy rarely seen in contemporary poetry." David Mason"
