Publisher Description:
John Taggart's When the Saints is a major long poem dedicated to the memory of his friend, the artist Bradford Graves (1939-1998). Taggart, whose brilliance as a poet was long ago recognized by such peers as Robert Duncan and George Oppen, brings to the work a verbal perfection and musical precision that belong only to the finest poets.
