Description
Treats the mundane interchanges, the lingering uncertainties, the missed opportunities, and the familiar sense of loss that mark daily life with the surgeon's deft touch. An American original, the poet involves the reader's emotions and imagination with an illusion of plain talk, rediscovering what is vital and musical in the language.
