The Actual Moon, The Actual Stars by Chris Forhan

"Over and over again, these poems shape the tensions that arise from Stevens' 'ever restless mind' and the world around us... Only the human speaker asks 'what is one to do' on a perfectly beautiful night when a fern 'rooted at the road's edge/casts the shadow of an infant's ribs. ' 'No Comment,' the title of this collection's first poem, is Forhan's wonderfully wry answer... Thankfully, Chris Forhan cannot hold his tongue, and, in the poems that follow-often lit by a playful sense of humor and a voice that is truly engaging-he creates a landscape that is both intensely physical and replete with the age-old questions. " -- From the Foreword.
