Description: “Barot’s *Want* is dexterous and thrilling, and his capacious and generous vision shows us how the eye survives ‘to correct the heart.’”—Michael Collier “In Rick Barot’s hands every poem casts at least two luminous shadows. *Want* is masterfully merciless and merciful at the same time.”—Terrance Hayes
