Description
Casting Lines traces the poet's childhood obsessions with baseball, girls, fishing, and saving America from the atomic bomb, to his adult obsessions, which seem almost as important-baseball and fishing, of course, writing, and loving his family.
"Casting Lines ... has as strong a sense of place as William Carlos Williams's Paterson. Rich with the familiar, yet generous with surprises, Lund's fine poems, born of the Midwest, show us our own world anew."-Connie Wanek, author of Bonfire
"Orval Lund loves words and their life, loves breathing in the face of the alternative, loves what Norman Maclean called this 'brutal, beautiful world.' ... He's an original, exceptional poet who has been practicing life; read him-hooks, lines, and all."-John Reinhard, author of On the Road to Patsy Cline
