Description
Poetry. "Not since the Metaphysical Poets have there been love poems like these—assembled from a tantalizing collection of analytic lyricism, philosophical speculation and wickedly witty word play. In politics, as well as poetics, Henning cuts across categories with surprising and pleasurable results. By turns piercingly direct and oblique, these poems glow darkly in the mind."—Elaine Equi
