A resplendent collection that reshapes the landscape of the imagination.

Giant Moth Perishes Summary

Giant Moth Perishes by Geoffrey Nutter

With exquisite detail and humble sensibilities, Geoffrey Nutter's sixth collection of poetry offers myriad delights in language and the imagination. In cityscapes, nature, books, and color, we find respite in the complexities of the commonplace-from clocks to teardrops to moths. The poems in Giant Moth Perishes teach us how to live in the world with curious attention. And at the heart of this daydreaming is a spectacular earnestness, firmly embedded in the idea that the landscape of poetry is limitless and wild.

Giant Moth Perishes Reviews

For years now, Nutter has been quietly writing some of the most beautiful poems in America. -John Ebersole, Kenyon Review

Thank goodness for Geoffrey Nutter, whose poetry seems to be powered equally by sunlight, virtue, wonder, and humility. -Nate Pritts, Rain Taxi
