Imponderables Propel the Dance

The Russian Collection

Stunning new poetry collection sculpted or (better yet) hammered out of the inmost recesses of a first time published poet against a back story of an American in Moscow slowly but surely transforming from a wide-eyed investor lawyer/banker searching for his roots to drinking vodka, smoking cigarettes, and reading and writing poetry - in other words toward becoming thoroughly Russian despite his deep American roots.

Alex Levitch serves up one illusion after another as he pits one imponderable after another in a madcap series of poetic narratives that challenges, confesses, probes. His poetry reminds one of Chekov, Milosz, Keats, and other later-in-life business poets like Stevens.
