Paperback. Condición: Good. Rick Campbell s journey from the banks of the Ohio to the beaches of Florida is a rhapsody, and the music he makes in ordering his world takes us with him, to the headwaters of a new river.Rick Campbell s poems leave some sweet dirt under your fingernails proof of hard, honest work when the longing of small-town America is not enough. Setting the World in Order eloquently plots our geographically impossible trajectories. On the way, Campbell can lay down a narrative as spacious as the range of a blues harmonica, every gritty riff dissolving into compassion. Dionisio D. MartinezRick Campbell s poems move with grace and muscle and music from the Catholic working class of his youth, its factories and foundries, along the rivers of Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Florida, and through the lives of the flesh-and-blood characters of contemporary America. Part prayer, part song, part gritty story, they always dance with meaning and significance; they always wholly embrace the idea of individual presence in a terrible, beautiful world. Frank X. GasparFrom Harmonica LessonGo with the rhythmtill you can t get off the track.Like this. Tight-belly staccato, hands cutting and freeing the air, one hard-held bottom line. Play betweentrains.
