Poetry. OVERNIGHT is Paul Violi's eleventh book of poems. On receiving the Zabel Award from the American Academy of Arts and Letters, he was cited for "bringing the sharpness and surprise of the avant-garde to a poetry that continually impresses by its honesty, its sincerity, and its clarity. One is taken through the solidest and strongest emotional landscapes on a remarkable new road." Recipient of two National Endowment for the Arts fellowships in poetry as well as grants from the Ingram Merrill Foundation, The Fund for Poetry, The Foundation for Contemporary Arts and many other awards, he currently teaches in the New School's graduate writing program and at Columbia University. "Deft, magical, filled with light, Violi's poetry is pure pleasure. He uses form with a mock-seriousness that would put most formailists to shame. These are poems of one who seems to love life, despite its abundant absurdities, and to love poetry"--American Book Review.
