Baron Wormser is the author of three previous collections of poetry: "The White Words" (Houghton Mifflin, 1983), "Good Trembling" (Houghton Mifflin, 1985), and "Atoms, Soul Music, and Other Poems" (Paris Review Editions, 1989). Born and raised in Baltimore, he earned his B.A. from Johns Hopkins University, his M.A. in English from the University of California, and his M.A. in Library Service from the University of Maine. His poems, essays, and reviews have appeared in "The Paris Review, The New Yorker, Harper's, The New Republic," and "The Georgia Review." Currently, Wormser lives with his wife in Mercer, Maine, in their house which is powered by a two-panel solar unit and is located on forty-five acres of Maine woods. He is a Buddhist affiliated with the Kwan Um Zen school and works as a librarian for a rural school district.""When" is a mix of autobiography and good old storytelling that never forgets a basic writerly tenet: locality is the only universality.

In "When," . . . he puts aside any expectations of poetic prettiness to take a clear, linguistically fresh look at issues such as AIDS, Vietnam, the ethics of fast-food consumption, and the seduction of Vegas. . . . Wormser's love of the world is evident, despite the searing light that he shines upon it."-Small Press Editor's Recommended Book, Amazon.com"The title "When" derives from Wormser's obsession with history. . . . This historical sense permeates his poems; it is critical to his approach to poetry. He is, in a manner of speaking, a time traveler. . . . Wormser makes references to people, objects, and events that define the time:
