Description

Approximately 100 pages. Considerable curl to covers. Several drops of coffee appear to have been spilled upon top edge. This has soaked into a few pages for up to 1/2 inch. Author has set for himself in this sequence of one hundred poems, a task both breathtaking in its scope and stunning in its accomplishment. By echoing with his gypsy guitar the troubadour tradition of the Languedoc, the great sonnet sequences of Petrarch and Shakespeare, the redefinitions of beauty and truth of the romantics, and the distractions and fragments of the post-modern, he has created a celebration of the beloved in which recognition, intelligence and wit illuminate each sentimental, awkward, humorous, everyday moment.
