The Blue in the Eye of the Girl from La Jolla: New and Selected Poems

Eric Linder has been writing poems for over forty years. In his first full-length collection his insight, humour, and precise lines combine to make poems that you will want to go back to time and again. With a clear eye and open heart, he gets to the nub of situations, personalities, and lifes puzzles, laying out the absurdities and sublime moments common to all of us. His work has appeared in The Quarterly, Harvard Magazine, and Light Year: The Annual of Light Verse and Funny Poems. He lives in Eastham on Cape Cod and recently discovered a meteorite in his back yard while digging turnips.
