Brush Mind

Poet and critic Hank Lazer captures delicious moments with the literal strokes of his pen. Lazer has published fourteen books of poetry since 1992. In addition, he published two volumes of criticism, Opposing Poetries: Volume One-Issues and Institutions and Opposing Poetries: Volume Two-Readings with Northwestern University Press (2006), and edited a collection of essays by various writers and critics (including Helen Vendler), What is a Poet?, for the University of Alabama Press (1987). Religious studies scholar William G. Doty called his "apocalyptic" work "prophetic and creative."
