The Occasional Tables

By Scott Bentley

Poetry. Remarkable intricacies of intelligence are at play in Scott Bentley's wonderful new book, the result of thought's occurring at maximal velocity without impatience. It evolves with the intensity of what might be termed a musical passion; the writing is precise and the effect is enormous -- Lyn Hejinian. A Bay Area poet previously published by O Books, Bentley devotes THE OCCASIONAL TABLES to poems originally crafted as gifts to particular loved ones, welcoming the reader to enjoy all the poems as if each one had been written for you, as if a lovelorn arrow had been flung straight toward your brave forehead.
