Stan Rice's new book of poems is faithful to the strong, expressionist thrust of his most recent collection, Singing Yet: New and Selected Poems, published in 1992. Fear Itself is equally arresting in the ominous visions it invokes - as though the book's title is to be taken literally, and the reader to be both engaged and disquieted.

Stan Rice was for many years associated with San Francisco State University, as Professor of English and Creative Writing, Assistant Director of the Poetry Center, and Chairman of the Creative Writing Department.
new collection of poetry, Rice is an expert practitioner of the paranoiac-surreal . . . . His true subject is the uneasy equation between horror and beauty, the 'liquification of flame' and the 'liquid of order.' He is often capable of delivering the instructive surprises of the best poetry."<br><br>--Graham Christian, <i>Library Journal</i><br><br><br><i>From the Trade Paperback edition.</i>

XX [From the inner flaps] Stan Rice's new book of poems is faithful to the strong, expressionist thrust of his most recent collection, Singing Yet: New and Selected Poems, published in 1992. FEAR ITSELF is equally arresting in the ominous visions it invokes - as though the book's title is to be taken literally, and the reader to be both engaged and disquieted. The Offering To the somethingness/Which prevents the nothingness/Like Homer's wild boar/From thrashing this way and that/Its white tusks/Through human beings/Like crackling stalks/And to nothing less/I offer this suffering of my father.
