Outram, Richard : Mogul Recollected

Porcupine's Quill, Erin, Ontario, 1993

ISBN 0889841748

In 1836 an elephant drowned off the coast of New Brunswick. Poet Richard Outram explores the significance of this bizarre occurrence in his brilliant new volume of poetry, Mogul Recollected. These witty and profound poems recreate the dismal conditions of Mogul's existence before he plunged to his death during a ship fire. Some are told from the point of view of Mogul himself, others from the perspective of ruthless trainers and circus owners. Recasting the tragedy as an inversion of the Noah's Ark story, Outram delineates with startling clarity man's betrayal of beast. [82p.] Author inscription on half title.. Book. Book Condition: Fine. Binding: Soft cover
