Description
Written during his time in a monastery, Prodigious Thrust is a work by William Everson that incorporates both prose and poetry with a monastic point of view. According to Everson in his preface, “What was conceived as essentially a book of poetry supported by an autobiographical context, came, through the incorporation of so many digressions, to swell out of all proportion, until the poems survive only as a kind of archipelago awash in an ocean of prose.”
