Waltzing through the endtime

by David Bottoms

"In these fourteen new poems, Bottoms draws us deeply into what Flannery O'Connor called "the Christ-haunted South." Bottoms' country is a region braced for apocalypse, a place where the spirit sweeps mysteriously across a landscape of burger joints, bass lakes, graveyards, and garbage dumps. These poems demonstrate the quirky nature of revelation."--Jacket.
