<p>A NEW LAND comes out of the late 60's when colorful, open-minded young people begin moving in and finding abandoned or cheap places to rent, forming communes, building wild dwellings, taking over the local bar and building it into a music mecca for the Southwest. The poet goes to New Buffalo in Arroyo Hondo while right in Placitas Village there is The Lower Farm, Manera Nueva and Towapa. "Dried Apricots" explores the crazier parts of Goodell’s brain where anything goes and the unleashed verbal input knows no bounds. There's a multi-gender base that keeps moving through his work as Earth consciousness continually beats like a drum. "Samurai Dog Biscuits" and "Rodeo Guts" reflect fragmentary assaults to his thinking while working and while at home with his muse. Other short prose pieces scatter out satire as well as some biography and commentary. A NEW LAND and other writings range from 1968 to 1980 in this native New Mexican's life.</p>

Larry Goodell is nearly legendary in New Mexico for his poems, songs, and performances. Personable, ornery, and mystical as a shovel, he has been called the "Aristophanes of the juniper/piñon scrublands." Here he writes about his garden, his ditch, tending to the basics with pollen and myth. These are sonnets with roots in buttermilk sky, Gertrude Stein, and boogie woogie--a selection of acrobatic verse without a net.
