Last Poems by
A rare display of poetic mastery and stylistic brilliance, this new collection of poetry by Thomas Sanfilip is a unique work of remarkable emotional intensity and spiritual courage that in many ways defies categorization. Reminiscent of the fragmented elegies of the ancient Greeks, Last Poems is a riveting monody to the last days of a family in physical and spiritual decline. Shifting between dialogue with his own conscience and inner monologues with each family member, Sanfilip's voice is at once plaintive and somber, stalwart and unyielding in his effort to reconcile the tragedies that have brought each individually and collectively to despair. At the same time, Sanfilip transforms disillusionment into profound mystical appeals that set out to resolve the disparities between life and death, meaning and self-negation in the light of familial love and its struggle for affirmation. In the end, each family member becomes a distinct archetype that leads the poet to a greater understanding of the tenuous connection we hold to the world, the people closest to us, and to the living substance of the soul in all its tragic beauty.

The Art of Anguish by
This fascinating collection of six interrelated poem sequences bound by one theme is a remarkable tour de force by one of the most challenging poets of our time. In this, his third published collection of poetry, Thomas Sanfilip attempts to pierce our shabby web of appearances in order to find the unadulterated human experience; to probe, sometimes even to erase the distinctions between theory and action, reality and illusion, life and death, exposing the excruciating limits of oneness with the world, and the clash of our physical, biologic, mental, subtle and causal aspects of being with nature itself. Yet what Sanfilip reveals more than anything else in these poems is the mystery he believes lies at the very root of all true self-realization; that in order to realize true reverence for life, mystery must be seen as its legitimate source; and that in humility before the unknown, one is finally liberated from all thatwould deter us from contact with the true self. Thomas Sanfilip's poetry has appeared in such publications as the Shore Poetry Anthology (1972), Lyrics of Love (1972), Thalassa, Ivory Tower, Nit & Wit, and Tomorrow. His first book of poetry, By the Hours and the Years, was published by Branden Press in 1974. His second book of poetry, Myth/A Poem, was published by Iliad Press in 2001 and is available in hardcover. Presently, he lives in the Chicago area where he teaches and has written for a variety of publications such as Book Page, Rain Taxi, Letter Ex, Filmfax, Film Quarterly, Film Score Monthly, The Journal of Popular Film and Television, and the Walt Whitman Encyclopedia (1998).

Myth by
Few, if any, modern poets have stood up against the wave of decay and mediocrity that has inculcated modern culture. For Sanfilip, poetrys lack of importance to modern culture is indicative of a deeper trauma at work. In Poetry in the Age Impurity, he spells out the end game of our cultures long refusal to face true existence and exposes the false mirror of modern society. In Sanfilips view, the death of poetic consciousness is emblematic of the crisis at hand. At the same time, he points a way both outward and inward to the perilous, metaphysical path necessary to find true being beyond the vacuity he sees swallowing up the West in ennui, cynicism and self-hatred. He challenges the warped values of our time, while at the same time laying out a psychic road map back to authenticity. Not since Shelleys A Defence of Poetry or the Surrealist manifestoes of the 1920s has a living poet been willing to stand up against the tide of decay eating away at the heart of modern society in such profound and articulate language. Poetry in the Age of Impurity is a courageous poets attempt to reclaim the stilled voice of prophecy lost in the babble and irrelevance that has become the fabric of modern society.
