The Complete Anthology: John Lars Zwerenz by John ZwerenzMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
A poet in a class of his own...
John Lars Zwerenz is world class all the way. Poetry has lost a lot of its flavor in this new age. When time moves past the current age, the next generation are always influenced by the previous generations even if that influence manifests as a rejection of the values of those who've gone before. Zwerenz 's poetry, however, lacks the awkward self-consciousness of post-modernism even when it compliments it, and that is its beautiful defining element. Highly recommended.
