Culled from six previous collections, Scorpio Rising: Selected Poems, is the culmination of a thirtyfiveyear career. Katrovas's early poems reflect a harrowing childhood on the highways of America as his parents fled the FBI. They also probe the gaslit backstreets of New Orleans's French Quarter where 'the protean human heart/is nature's crime against us.' Witness to Prague's Velvet Revolution while on a Fulbright Fellowship, Katrovas in his later poems meditates upon his own American identity as he raises bicultural, bilingual daughters. Katrovas's formal verse has an edge we do not usually associate with traditionally formal poetry. Understanding that all gendered identity is a construction, Katrovas explores, as few lyric poets have, the linguistic and emotional contours of 'masculinity.'
