Slaughtering the Buddha

By Gordon Osing

Poetry. Osing here draws on the Mississippi Delta blues tradition as well as the tradition of his own schooling in Chinese literature and American Poetics to advance his understanding of the aging man of letters. Informal in its appreciation of formulaic memories, the volume comprises an elegaic tone while mounting the vicissitudes and caprice of the still surrounding world.
