Evoking the ancient worlds of pre-Vedic and Sapphic lovers, medieval "jonglaresas," and nuns "fingering petals and hips," as well as the contemporary world of circuses, global politics, friendship, betrayal, and death, the poems in this collection fold in on themselves, exploding into concentric rings of meaning, rich in symbol and metaphor. |
