EcholocationDaily rhythms and family tales dominate this quietly impressive book of poems, which examines domestic life in order to reconfirm its virtues. Though the subject matter is uncompromisingly orthodox, with ruminations on having a baby in the home and another on the way, the writing uses undeniable grace and exactness to cut to the heart of what truly matters in life. |
