A new collection from a Kingsley Tufts Awardwinning poet Imaginary Logic is a brilliantly expansive, deeply meditative, and at times wildly imaginative collection of poems that combines Rodney Joness distinctive storytelling ability, sharp social intelligence, and keen powers of observation in a book that is wistful, satiric, audacious, and remorseless. The Art of Heaven opens with a parody of Dante and a down-home, twisted humor that Joness readers have come to rely on: In the middle of my life I came to a dark wood, / the smell of barbecue, kids running in the yards. / Not deep depression. This nice hell of suburbs. / Speed bumps. The way things arent quite paradise.Rodney Jones, winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award, is one of Americas best, most generous, and most brilliantly readable poets (Poetry). Imaginary Logic is the most eloquent expression yet of his rigorous mind, scrupulous eye, and capacious heart.
