Guardian Bookshop Notes:
Trade paperback. In his eighth book of poetry, Doty tackles our mortality, the beauty of the world and the power of desire
Publisher's description:
Deals with our mortal situation, the evanescent beauty of the world, desire's transformative power and poetry's ability to give shape to human lives. The poet listens to cicadas, to Handel, to the calling of birds, to Juan the loquacious Mexican taxi driver, and steeps himself in the colour and incident of the streets and subways of New York City.
