RUMOR OF CORTEZ
( Rumor of Cortez, Levine’s second book of poetry, unfold...)
Rumor of Cortez, Levine’s second book of poetry, unfolds the compelling dilemmas of a modern man at odds with the endless possibilities of the rapid-fire world. Here are poems that spin and dip into the myths and contradictions presented by history and the driving forces of want―desire amok in the “stopless” world the poet holds dear and celebrates even through intense sensual and spiritual conflict. These poems touch emotional chords most poets leave unsounded and vibrate with the jazz riffs and rhythms of Levine’s language.

Poetry. "MORTAL, EVERLASTING offers poems which are measured, patient, musical, witty, serious, formal in feeling, and totally human. These poems create enchanted spaces rich in memory and imagination-all we have to draw our surest knowledge from"-Howard McCord. "The poems of Jeffrey Levine honor language in ways few poets can.Reading Jeffrey Levine's poems, I am reminded that the moment poetry takes over our lives is the instant we know there is no going back"-Ray Gonzales.
