Ricky Ricardo Suites

In his first book since the novel Napoleon’s Retreat, and his first collection of poems in almost a decade, Robert Allen dazzles with his astonishingly diverse work. Among other things, Ricky Ricardo Suites contains 46 new sections of the long poem ‘The Encantadas,’ which Phil Hall called “...a wondrous poem: dense, lush, hypnotic.”

Critical Comment

“In his first poetry collection since Magellan’s Clouds, New and Selected Poems (1990, Vehicule Press, Signal Editions), Allen writes clear and provocative poems on a range of subjects, casually observing Errol Flynn’s cock, getting cable, conversations of what Al Purdy could get away with, Ricky Ricardo, and on the birth of western music.”

— The Antigonish Review, 2002
