Description

 							In his third book of poems, David Gewanter takes on wartime America, showing our personal costs and inextricable
complicities. The constructs of our social lives, the conventions of our political values, the ambitions of our private
fantasies—all these collide comically and tragically. Here, the far right marries the far left, and the sacred is
undone by the profane. Gewanter's ironic vision pulls together details from science, history, philosophy, the
disappearing dailies, and the emotional life of an engaged and singular mind into poems on the move with tense rhythms,
rich correspondences, and daring hairpin turns. War Bird gives the lie to the shining moral complacencies of the
homefront. Unsettling yet radiant, this collection is a book for troubled times, for what Whitman called, in
“1861,” our “hurrying, crashing, sad, distracted year.”
  
  Editorial Reviews
 
Review
  “This disciplining, demanding writing itself is enough to recommend David Gewanter’s new
collection, as is its no uncertain pursuit of a politics that takes no prisoners. It’s common enough that poetry
will use its wisdom to advance an agenda, but War Bird far surpasses that limited goal. The hard edge of its menacing
wit, the severe tension of its layered lyricism, the implied magnitude of its statement combine to effect a moral force.
This is poetry in a language that matters.”—Stanley Plumly
  
  "The poems are funny, vicious,
and swirling. Many are politically motivated, their ironic language lobbying for connections between strata of meanings.
How do politics and history and culture sound in the subjective, as something spoken by the poet who cares about the
texture of language, the privileged placement of sound and sense, above a layer of "meaning?" Gewanter''s history feels
personal, a history he creates consciously in the present, as a preparation for the future."—Sean Enright,
Tikkun
  (Sean Enright Tikkun)
  
  "Gewanter''s work is implicitly a respect for the past, all of ours,
the grief is there, the truth not always pretty; it is solemnity belied by humor, always humor keeping us reading. . . .
In this book the peaks of history are attacked from all angles, sometimes with dash, sometimes more vulnerably.
Gewanter’s facets are eclectic and buoyant inventions. He concocts combinations that dare us to be happy so we
will not be destroyed by his truth. This is when humor becomes craft. It lifts us up while slapping us down. David
Gewanter is tortured by love for the world. His remorse for that same world summarizes his poems. He is Mick Jagger and
Seamus Heaney in a style well achieved, original and true."
