Sobre IBD

The poems in this volume address, with affection, humor, tenderness, and sorrow, the ordinary arrivals and departures that make up a life; our intimate relationship with the natural world; matters of injustice; aging, death and immortality; and the 'breath-stealing, pulse-thumping, teeming, sprawling, 3-D Technicolor extravaganza of our limitless luminous life.'
