Summary:
"Behold the door / the lock's alive," warns Stan Rice in one of the commanding poems that make up this new volume of verse.From the streets of New Orleans during Mardi Gras to the private chambers of the imagination, Rice's work is at times sharp and minimalist and at times over the top in its vivid critique of life and in its regard.
