I love this little book, spare but deep-some wonderful ideas and turns of phrase. Representative of the unartificial yet not mundane style I admire these days.
I loved these short poems flooded with images and thought-provoking prose. Many of them had to be digested twice to grasp the language and nuances of this long distance relationship. I am anxious to read more from this author as I believe he will produce some amazing things in the near future.
