Towards a General Theory of Love

Beschreibung

Clare Shawâ s fourth collection shows that poetry can say as much as about who we are â and especially how we feel â as psychology. The book is inhabited by the character of Monkey, who shows by example how early attachments and trauma may shape us, but how ultimately we come to realise our own general theory and practice of love.
