Anyone (Phoenix Poets)

Using a variety of forms and achieving a range of musical effects, Nate Klug traces the unraveling of astonishment upon small scenesdomestic, political, and religiousin America and abroad. Whether describing a harrowing case of kids holding their cell phone cameras up to a goshawk picking at something behind police tape, or the powerful wall of sound generated at a Sacred Harp sing-along, or updating the classic verses of Horace and Virgil for twenty-first-century ears, Klug delivers everyday experience with a freshness, compassion, and the occasional satiric edge seldom found in contemporary poetry. Rare in this age of skepticism, Klug demonstrates a fluency in the paradoxes of religious faith, even as the poems remain grounded in the phenomenal, secular, physical world."
