As Luck Would Have it by Mark Weiss
"This is a barefoot poetry, almost in the very oldest Asian sense of that phrase, a poetry of voice & body that recognizes that even body-language has accents, which surely it does. The eye is keen, the humor self-deprecating. Mark Weiss has reached that point on life's mesa where forgiveness (to oneself as well as others) may well be the most important of gestures. A book to make you glad to be in the world." - Ron Silliman
Mark Weiss builds complex mosaics out of broken fragments of a world both familiar and surprising. "Put two things next to each other," he has written, "and a third thing happens." As Luck Would Have It is his tenth book and his fourth major collection. He has also edited anthologies of Mexican and Cuban poetry and translated several books of poems from Spanish. His study overlooks Manhattan's only forest.
