Expect Delays

4/5 ( ratings)

Praise for Bill Berkson:

"A serene master of syntactical sleight and transformer of the mundane into the marvelous."—Publishers Weekly

"That was Bill through and through, still curious and receptive after a lifetime of glamorous soldiering through the fields of art and poetry.” —City Lights, "Homage to Bill Berkson"

Wide-ranging and experimental, Expect Delays confronts past and present with rare equilibrium, eyeballing mortality while appreciating the richness and surprise, as well as the inevitable griefs, inherent in the time allowed.

Dress Trope

white jackets like
lab technicians;
curators, zoo

to protect them from
impending
radiant fact.

Bill Berkson is a poet, critic, and professor emeritus at the San Francisco Art Institute.
