Books by Janet Kaplan

"Among the leading poets of the newest generation of American writers." Molly Peacock

With a salve in one hand and a butcher's knife in the other, Janet Kaplan offers her masterful third collection, Dreamlife of a Philanthropist. These prose poems and sonnets are packed with postmodern language-leaping, modern irony and absurdity, and a poet's ageless ear for the pleasures of the lyric and formal experimentation.
