The Litanies of Longing: selected poems (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781977286932)

This is a rare book of poems of love and longing. These poems illuminate the endless paths of passion we find in animals, in a man grieving for his dog, in an astronomer, a philosopher, a dying couple, and young lovers. This book stirs the memory and deepens our understanding of what desire is, and captivates us with its songs, its chiseled lyrics, and its sad, delightful, poignant reflections of what it means to be human, what it means to be in love, what it means to lose and find love again--life lived with passion, and the unapologetic embrace of it.
