Kolin's seventh collection of poems, he writes with elegance and grace about the leaps and shifts that mark life... (Mary Swander, Iowa Poet Laureate). As Kolin puts it, each of the poems tells a story about a journey the speaker takes... chronological, familial, romantic, and\/or spiritual. This expansive collection of more than 70 poems ranges from religious meditations, to lyrics, elegies, and dramatic monologues, and often employs carefully crafted narratives to symbolize interpersonal tensions. The transformative power of love unites the collection as a whole.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Philip C.
