Days Shadows Pass

Paul Vangelisti's new collection of poetry, Days Shadows Pass-his 23rd book-reflects upon nature, urban living, love, and human relationships within the context of the transience of life. Beginning with a lyrical recounting of a short-lived week in "Absolutely Like Spring," in this new work Vangelisti eulogizes noted friends, writers and figures of admiration-Ennio Correnti, Robert Crosson, Adolfo Bioy Casares-in between longer satirical and elegiac testimonies to a life lived in a climate (of Southern California) that offers only the, slightest of seasonal alterations, and in which one's all-too-fleeting existence is best measured by shadows and the shadows of events.

Paul Vangelistis Head of the Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing Program at Otis College of Art and Design
