moral investigations of a world —our world—which he suspects may be
an inappropriate place to investigate morally. But what other world
is there?”

“The intelligence, the imagination, the quick humor in
Solar Prominence all point in the same direction:
toward the poem as a made thing, a thing of light, crafted, the
way craft, through its various art, transforms the generalities
into the specifics of magic.”
—Stanley Plumly

Heaven of the Moment

Clemens Starck
"I have been crazy about Clem
Starck's poetry ever since I read it a few years ago while picking
him as the winner of the Oregon Book Award. I'm not alone in particularly
cherishing poems by people who work with their hands. Carpenters,
printers and factory workers are a fresh and vital antidote to
the myriad of academic poets. Cheers for Clem!"
