A searching new collection from America?s philosopher-poet John Koethe, in his tenth volume of poetry, investigates the capricious nature of everyday life, ?the late-night jazz, great sex and all / The human shit defining what we are.? His poems?always dynamic and in process, never static or complete?luxuriate in the questions that punctuate the most humdrum of routines, rendering a robust portrait of an individual: complicated, quotidian, and resounding with truth. The Swimmer argues that this ?energizes everything?: life?s trivialities, surprises, and disappointments, and the ?terrible feeling of being just about to fall.?
