American Linden (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780971031098)

It is rare to come across a first book that embraces the world the way we see it, and the way it can be imagined-with such a wise and graceful mixture of humor, loss, intelligence, wit, self-deprecation, and hope. American Linden is such a first collection. The poems in this book are valuable, even necessary. They are, in the most important sense, love poems: to people, to ideas, to feelings, and to the mind itself, which by means of language move with honesty, wit, and distinction among the fleeting things of this world.
