Product Description
In this remarkable fourth collection of poems, Marianne Boruch continues to explore the world around her with curiosity, wry humor, searching skepticism, and thoughtful tenderness. These poems range widely, often letting themselves be triggered by quite ordinary events and people, in order to launch themselves into questions and considerations we could not have predicted from their initial subjects. At their center, the poet--observant, reflective, and usually solitary--meditates with the care of a scientist and the precision of a magician on the way our lives weave a pattern that is both comic and tragic.
