The Villanelles by Black Hamlet

This volume contains a mix of previously published Villanelles from “Who is Black Hamlet?”, “Blue” and “Liefdeslied”, as well as many as yet unpublished pieces.

Black Hamlet wields the Villanelle like a hammer at times, blunt in his execution of the form. At others, he is tender and provocative, demonstrating a rare finesse with the form.

As always, Black Hamlet adds his own unique style and flavor to this collection of poems.
