Description

James Sallis' latest poetry collection is a study in gothic noir where post-war trauma surfaces in a speaker's haunted relationship with time and space, where the familiar is strange, and the strange is familiar. In Night's Pardons, Sallis writes of the "terror of the ordinary," the things that keep us up at night, that populate the darkness waiting for an absolution we cannot muster, from which we can find no peace except in the language of poetry itself.

Author Biography:

James Sallis has published fifteen novels including the Lew Griffin cycle, Others of My Kind, and Drive, the landmark biography of Chester Himes, a translation of Raymond Queneau's novel Saint Glinglin, and multiple collections of essays and stories plus three books of musicology and three previous collections of poems, Sorrow's Kitchen, Rain's Eagerness, and Black Night's Gonna Catch Me Here: New and Selected Poems.
