Nice Fish: New and Selected Prose Poems

"The title of the play (and much of the script in performance) comes from Nice Fish, one of the books of poetry written by Louis Jenkins."--Nice Fish newsletter, Spring, 2013, Guthrie Theater

"To imagine what it means to be another human being is an act of love. These are poems written by a great lover of the world. Everything in it that stands alone, unobserved, and luminous. Solitary people with their solitary destinies...If there's a native, archetypical American solitude, Louis Jenkins has given us its flavor."--Charles Simic, The Boston Review
