- Summary:
- "For Richards, life in a poem is like life in a body -- most at risk, and most fully at play." -- David Rivard, "Ploughshares "
- Exfoliating language with wit, Nude Siren is sardonic, intimate, sump-tuous; an exacting sense of remaking the probabilities of words. Richards knows where to find the sinister in humor, and the grace conveyed by beige light.
- Peter Richards is a recipient of a -Massachusetts Cultural Council Grant in Poetry, an Iowa Arts Fellowship, an Academy of American Poets Prize, and the John Logan Award. He is the author of "Oubliette "(Verse Press, 2001).
