Title: Running The Dusk Author/Artist: Christian Campbell Cost: $16.95 Order Now Mark to order multiple products.

There is a voraciousness in his consumption of the world around him—as if he is seeing it all for the first time and naming it for the first time. Campbell’s verse manages without pretension or undue self-consciousness to draw on popular culture and a classical literature. He feels no obligation to show reference to either, but appropriates what he needs to capture the zeitgeist of his twenty-first century world.
