Book Description
Both pastoral and medical elements play with themes of great emotional intensity in these innovative poems about infatuation, pottery-making, resentment, memory loss, illness, jealousy, and love. At long last a second poetry collection to follow the success of Fortress of Chairs. Elisabeth Harvor's most recent short story collection, Let Me Be the One, was a finalist for the 1996 Governor General Fiction Prize.
