Reviews

"These poems are sensuous and lyrical; the poet is passionately present in the fleeting moment 'listening carefully with the body’s rapt attention'. . . . And they are also elegiac, haunted by impermanence and past sorrow, always aware that 'the gods do not like to dole out too much honey.'"
