Sinossi

This is the &;Age of the Bullet,&; Matthew Lippman writes in Mesmerizingly Sadly Beautiful, days in which &;bullets sprout other bullets in the bullet garden&; and a caricature of a onesie-wearing president sucking on a pacifier appears on the cover of a national magazine. Lippman&;s poems are wildly inventive yet grounded in the 21st-century dailyness of parenting and dinner parties and Dunkin Donuts, all of which serve as launch pads into perennial questions of mercy and trust. &;I don&;t care what you say about this city,&; Lippman writes in the title poem whose images recall New York City in the days following 9/11: &;We sit down together on the sidewalk / and we hold one another.&; These are brash, beautiful poems, big-hearted in their tilt toward sentimentality and their yearning for something more, something better.
