George Bilgere continues his exploration of the joys and absurdities of being middle-aged and middle-class in the Midwest. OK, maybe he's a bit beyond middle-aged at this point, and his rueful awareness of this makes these poems even more darkly hilarious, more deeply aware of the feckless and baffling times our nation has stumbled into. Blood Pages is a guidebook to the fears, foibles, and beauties of our lovely old country as it makes its blundering, tentative way into the new century.

No Jacket. Pittsburgh. 2018. February 2018. University of Pittsburgh Press. Uncorrected Proof. Very Good in Wrappers. 9780822965275. Pitt Poetry Series. 6 x 9. 72 pages. paperback. keywords: American Literature Poetry. DESCRIPTION-In Blood Pages George Bilgere continues his exploration of the joys and absurdities of being middle-aged and middle-class in the Midwest. OK, maybe he's a bit beyond middle-aged at this point, and his rueful awareness of this makes these poems even more darkly hilarious, more deeply aware of the feckless and baffling times our nation has stumbled into. And the fact that Bilgere, relatively late in life, is now the father of two young boys brings a fresh sense of urgency to his work. Blood Pages is a guidebook to the fears, foibles, and beauties of our lovely old country as it makes its blundering, tentative way into the new century. The poems in Blood Pages typically arise out of the everyday, such as eating pancakes, a scene at Starbucks, and nostalgia for an old TV set. The wonder here is that Bilgere is able to evince from these poems moments of human pathos as affecting as the ones found in his poems on more serious subjects-a mother's death, a father's violence, and childbirth. Bilgere is that rare poet who can be as funny or as serious as he wants to be-often at the same time. -Billy Collins. Bilgere's done it again with Blood Pages. He peels back the layers of artifice to uncover our pulsing hearts working to sort out and survive the everyday struggles and absurdities of being human. With self-deprecating humor, with unwavering empathy, and with hard-earned clarity, he is one of our finest poets, and this is one of his finest books. I simply can't get enough of the poems of George Bilgere. -Jim Daniels. inventory #43666.
