Antiquity | Michael Homolka
The poems inAntiquitystage meeting grounds for the irreconcilable, as Homolka gives us the present infused with the past. Heroes of ancient Greece and Rome puzzle over contemporary war atrocities; a warning cry from the Holocaust gains eerie immediacy; and the Black Death reprises itself in this haunting, richly textured debut. Michael Homolkais a graduate of Bennington College's MFA program and currently lives in New York City, New York, where he teaches high school English through the NYC Teaching Fellows program. Homolka's poems have appeared in theNew Yorker,Ploughshares,Boulevard,Parnassus, theThreepenny Review, and elsewhere.
