[Ivan Granger]

This is a quirky collection of poems from various Jewish traditions rendered into a post-modern freeform that, frankly, feels more at home in the 1970s, when it was published. Having said that, there is something lovable about this thick book. The unusual renderings invite you to play with the poems and take no word or line for granted.
