Beskrivning
Owen McLeod's extraordinary debut maps the contours of an ordinary life: the rise and fall of romantic love, the struggle against mental illness, and the unending quest for meaning and transcendence. Ranging from sonnets and sestinas to experimental forms, these poems are unified by their musicality, devotion to craft, and openness of heart.From ""All Saints' Eve""From a La-Z-Boy abandonedon the basketball court, I watchedyou light up the KFC, part trafficfor the rush-hour ambulance, raiseweeds from asphalt cracks, cause rainto come down like Adidas on me,mofo of infinite faith. Treeswere your fingers, not prints or clues.Never were you uppercase with me.
