Poetry. Includes the poem "Melody of Complaint," nominated for a Pushcart Prize. These wise and pithy poems address human ontology with surprising originality and wit. Struggle is made funny and acceptable and yet the poet doesn't downplay ordinary struggle. April Ossmann notes, Nudelman's poems are courageous and soulful, merging science and poetry--such that each is made more personal. Readers who appreciate Gaston Bachelard, William Bronk, David Ignatow, will likely find a new next voice--unexpected as it is in a life-long medical researcher and bookseller. But just when you think Nudelman's honesty is boy-next-door, we're given a dose of allusion to the surreal. OUT OF TIME, RUNNING refines indulgences and goth as if Keats and David Sedaris were sometimes Med School buddies. What remains is more sweet than bitter, and poetry we couldn't refuse. "In moments documentary, in moments meditative, these poems are pared and spare, carefully wrought and duly lined, availing absences and openings for the poet's and the reader's late longings to collude."--Scott Cairns
