While many of these poems bear the clearest imprint yet of Hayes's background as a visual artist, they do not strive to describe art so much as inhabit it. Thus, one poem contemplates the principle of blind contour drawing while others are inspired by maps, graphs, and assorted artists. The formal and emotional versatilities that distinguish Hayes's award-winning poetry are unified by existential focus. Simultaneously complex and transparent, urgent and composed, \u003ci\u003e How to Be Drawn\u003c\/i\u003e is a mesmerizing achievement.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTerrance Hayes\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of\u003ci\u003e Lighthead, \u003c\/i\u003e winner of the 2010 National Book Award and finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award.
