Iowa: Poetry by Lucas Hunt

The first of five linen-cased hardcover books in an autobiographical collection of cinematic poetry Iowa commences the Homeric journey of poet Lucas Hunt from a childhood engulfed by the humidity and sun on a pig farm to the Society shores of Southampton the jagged glass and steel canyons of New York City and the sublimity of Rome and Paris.In Iowa Hunt brings his literary camera closer to the fire within the belly of a boy poised to champion the writers dream of life in Manhattan. Economic in style lyrical and determined in voice Iowa from its first foreshadowing verse will prove Ayn Rand right: The world you desire can be won. It exists it is real it is possible its yours.
