Pascal
Goes to the Races, Poems by Janet McCann
Janet McCann’s
Pascal Goes to the Races is a
poetry collection of intellectual breadth and stylistic daring. intimate
lyrics stand alongside long, fractured sequences on history’s darker
corners. McCann has shored these fragments against the ruins of human
experiences.
