Summary:
"In his third collection of verse, 'Quicker Than The Eye,' Joe Fiorito continues to craft short, sharp poems that define the harder edges of urban life. His principal tools are a photographer's eye for detail, and a musician's ear for the sound of the human voice. Now, in his new book 'Quicker Than The Eye,' Canada's poet of the streets turns his gaze inward, writing about the influences of early love, family tragedy, and the search for meaning in a world where 'the desolate things are mine.' A master of spare, razor-sharp language, Fiorito manages to strip sentiment from memory in order to find tenderness and enduring truth on the margins of the city. He has never written more austerely or more beautifully."--Front cover jacket flap.
"Born in Fort Willilam, Ontario, Joe Fiorito awards include the National Newspaper Award for Columns, the Bressani Prize for Short Fiction and the City of Toronto Book Award. He is the author of eight books of fiction and non-fiction, including two collections of poetry, most recently 'All I Have Learned Is Where I Have Been' (2021). He is married and lives in Toronto." -- Back cover jacket flap.
