Book: Hip Logic( Series - National Poetry Series ) Terrance Hayes is a dazzlingly original poet, interested in adventurous explorations of subject and form. His new work, "Hip Logic," is full of poetic tributes to the likes of Paul Robeson, Big Bird, Balthus, and Mr. T, as well as poems based on the anagram principle of words within a word. Throughout, Hayes's verse dances in a kind of homemade music box, with notes that range from tender to erudite, associative to narrative, humorous to political. "Hip Logic" does much to capture the nuances of contemporary male African American identity and confirms Hayes's reputation as one of the most compelling new voices in American poetry.
