Poetry. Part post-industrial sea chantey, part epiphany against the 'economies of loss' that expand exponentially with each morning's news that struggles to stay news, Jane Sprague's THE PORT OF LOS ANGELES offers us a rare and varied thick description (with Whitmanesque undertows) of those moments when our living-breathing-trying-to-pay-the bills-selves meet the vast expanse that is the seemingly boundless sea. 'John Steinbeck was right, ' the poet writes. And Jane Sprague certainly is, too--Mark Nowak
