Publisher's Synopsis
Using the schema of Dante's Purgatorio, Robert Eastwood's Romer is a poem of thirty-three Cantos in three-line stanzas, illuminating the experience of a modern man at every stage of his life. Just as the Purgatorio explores the psyche in terms of its earthly existence, Romer follows the journey of one man who needs to know who he is, where he is, and what he is trying to do. This need is universal,so in that sense, Romer is every man.
