Poems, 1983-2023

Beschreibung

Lays out, not someone's entire life, but that person's life as a poet. This enthralling, career-spanning book is made up mainly of new poems along with a generous number of older ones alternating with one another in nine sections that proceed, not chronologically, but more like chapters in a surreal memoir.
