Cover ImageWilliam Stobb's Nervous Systems, a 2006 National Poetry Series selection, now available from Penguin Books.

"Jittery, synaptic, wide-ranging... filled with audacious turns, swerves, juke-steps, leaps, while still somehow managing to get the poems where they were meant to go.  Mr. William Stobb has nerve, talent, and engages this madly accelerating, often nearly indecipherable world in what's called real time.  And he manages it without sacrificing emotional force.  That's something special."
