Books by Donna Stonecipher

Model City answers its own inaugural question 'What was it like?' in 288 different ways. The accumulation of these answers offers a form of sustained and refined negative capability, which by turns is wry, profound and abundant with an unspecified longing for the passing ghost of European idealism.

Features a special section on the Hungarian German Jewish writer and theater director George Tabori and a Forum section on the 2016 film A German Life.

In this debut collection of poems, a continual renovation of prose-poem forms unites narrative with lyricism to invent a little country, where the elegance of architecture, specifically European, houses a purely American spirit.
