Furious Dusk

Rhina P. Espaillat, judge of the 2014 Andr s Montoya Poetry Prize, describes Furious Dusk, David Campos's winning collection, as a work whose five parts trace a son's efforts--only partially successful--to fulfill his father's expectations and--perhaps even more difficult--understand those expectations enough to forgive them." The poet's reflections are catalyzed by learning of his father's impending death, which, in turn, forces him to examine his father's expectations against his own evolving concept of what it means to be a man.--Kenyon Review Online
