Fiction. Over 20 Years of Stories. "What a pleasure to have all these stories by Lewis Warsh in one volume! They tend to be low-key, almost off- hand, but each with a poetic kernel that infects and defuses throughout, which makes them (though it is a critical cliche to say it this way) haunting.

I experience an intense pleasure every time I open Lewis Warsh's novel A Free Man. I become deeply involved, not so much with the story as with the book itself, something I haven't experienced since reading F. Scott Fitzgerald's Tender is the Night.

Inseparable" collects poems written between 1995 and 2005 by the New York poet, editor and novelist Lewis Warsh. Strongly identified with New York since the 1960s, when he co-founded "Angel Hair" magazine with Anne Waldman, Warsh makes poems from the city's linguistic fabric, interwoven with a bemused real-time interiority. The 35 poems of this collection are pitted with reminiscences made approachable to the reader by their lack of self-absor...
