Summary: Tribal Art
Comment: A slow beginning to the book, and to some degree, it rings with that American, competitive, referential, historo-hype you get from great foreign writers who, all of the sudden, find themselves in Radio City Poetry Hall because the academy-entrenched poets feel obliged/committed to placing medals on them and getting them BIGHOUSE publications for their profound simplicity and historical signifincance despite whether or not they truly beleive in them and their art. Salamun is a tribal artist, the only kind of artist, and I know that what I instinctually feel is missing from half the poems is his inability to take greater risks, to do what he does best--- to leave the world of poetry in its mess of political debris and sing without question the mystery of objectivity and the beauty of discovering the self without self consciousness. His tribe is growing...smaller or larger makes no difference.

Still, Feast is much better than 98% of what we find in the bighouse.

"I", "Bosporus", and "I Smell Horses in Poland" is where he's really present. Don't hesitate in deciding about the book for; "Whoever eats from the Tree of Life loses all his sins"(p.9)
