Co-winner of the 1983 National Book Award for Poetry, Country Music is comprised of eighty-eight poems selected from Charles Wright’s first four books published between 1970 and 1977.  From his first book, The Grave of the Right Hand, to the extraordinary China Trace, this selection of early works represents “Charles Wright’s grand passions: his desire to reclaim and redeem a personal past, to make a reckoning with his present, and to conjure the terms by which we might face the future,” writes David St. John in the forward.  These poems, powerful and moving in their own right, lend richness and insight to Wright’s recently collected later works.  “In Country Music we see the same explosive imagery, the same dismantled and concentric (or parallel) narratives, the same resolutely spiritual concerns that have become so familiar to us in Wright’s more recent poetry,” writes St. John.

Mythologies have lost validity with the progression of time and the Gate Keepers have buried evidence of a glorious past, resurrecting a modern thought of fables to the world. Nicole Scott had a normal life until it was altered in a most peculiar place; a cathedral in the heart of London. She discovers the Ancients who secretly reside under the nose of humanity. It appears that mankind is not alone, and Nicole realizes this when coming face to face with Gath. Gath’s bloodline extended from the Titans, a race of beings at war with the heavens. He is also part man and has the lusts of mortal flesh. Intrigued and enamored by each other, Gath and Nicole find that the world is not yet ready to remember what once was and struggle to keep hidden, the oldest power that can break down strongholds…, love.
