Description
Wyoming (The Lost Poems) is a run of poems written and put away in the 1970s. It is the work of a writer who began as a student of poetry but who became a journalist, novelist, and screenwriter. None of the poems have been published previously or submitted anywhere for publication. It is a collection of exploding imagination and acute observation.
Reviews"Califorina Bloodstock is most stylisly composed, in the cool, nihilistic matter of Joan Didion and Thomas McGuane." -- Edward Abbey "California Bloodstock is an oyster of a book, salty and delicious; a pearl-handled, silver-barreled derringer of a book, elegant and snappy; a medicine rattle of a book, mystic and a little spooky. I was sickened, delighted, and very impressed." -- Tom Robbins "The twisted truth about where California came from . . . a rare original piece of work." -- Hunter S. Thompson
