"Night of the Grizzly," Michael Burns's last book, was a finished manuscript at the time of his passing and reflects an incisive poet at the height of his powers. Burns has an ear for language as satisfying as Robert Frost s and a knack for storytelling Robert Penn Warren would envy. His deep image poems evoke primal experiences that take us beyond the dulling influence of this life. Twenty-one of the thirty-six poems printed here have appeared in such distinguished venues as "The Paris Review," "The Southern Review," "Western Humanities Review," "The Laurel Review," and "Moon City Review.""
