Publisher's Synopsis
Before the Aftermath is Paul B. Roth's thirteenth published book of poetry. According to internationally published poet and award-winning translator, John Taylor, "Paul B. Roth is a poet who seeks to recover the genuine state of our being-in-the-world before our wishful anthropomorphisms and yearnings for transcendence." Taylor adds, "...so convincingly grounded in acute sense impressions, is the lasting gift that Roth offers us." Before the Aftermath is a superb book of poetry!
