Ever aware, ever vivid, ever focused, Kleinzahler's are some of the finest lyrics being produced in American poetry today. Pieces of ordinary talk are Kleinzahler's strong suit, as Helen Vendler observed in \u003ci\u003eParnassus\u003c\/i\u003e, because they occur in his glancing, alert rhythms. . . .  His] jaunty skips and riffs solace the ear. \u003ci\u003eRed Sauce, Whiskey and Snow\u003c\/i\u003e presents an experimental poetry of exceptional wit and control.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAugust Kleinzahler\u003c\/b\u003e published his first book of poetry, \u003ci\u003eA Calendar of Airs\u003c\/i\u003e, in 1978.
