Peter Scacco's sixth volume of verse, A New Game, brings together fifteen new poems with twenty-one of the author's finest pieces selected from previous volumes. Mr. Scacco continues to reveal his intimacy with art in ekphrastic poems such as "Endymion" and "Old master drawing," his kinship with nature and cosmic forces as in "Orion," and pensive reminiscences of familiar places as in "Walking with ghosts" and "A menu." As always, he deals with the constant themes of uncertainty and the encroachment of age. As he has done in his previous books, Mr. Scacco has created several woodcuts to accompany his work, giving it an added aesthetic dimension.
