Ghost Radio

Poetry. An editor at Hanging Loose Press, GHOST RADIO is Dick Lourie seventh collection of poetry and perhaps his most successful, deftly bringing forth issues of race and music in a disarming and forthright style. Lourie is an accomplished musician playing tenor sax and trumpet for a variety of bands, and GHOST RADIO is as lively as the music he plays. Lourie’s poetry has also appeared in a variety of magazines including Verse, Exquisite Corpse, The Massachusetts Review, ACM, Sun, and Ms. Magazine. Dick Lourie’s work has never failed to give me a keen sense of his integrity and individuality–Denise Levertov.
