Paraph of Bone & Other Kinds of Blue

2001 Winner
The American Poetry Review /Honickman First Book Prize in Poetry

Ed Pavlic for Paraph of Bone & Other Kinds of Blue
Selected by Adrienne Rich

As its title suggests, Ed Pavlic’s Paraph of Bone & Other Kinds of Blue seeks a glow at the deeper end of the spectrum, an exuberant flourish at the core of who we are.  The poems, at once, vamp and whisper the supple harmony and lush dissonance of human connections, intimate and erotic, psychological, historical, familial, cultural.
