DESCRIPTION

Poetry. “Old lovers, a suckling pig (‘shaved baby’), the ‘lucky man’ whose wife’s hair smells of bacon, the person suspended in formaldehyde who remembers Rilke’s ‘Being here is wonderful,’ Tito the Amenian meat cutter who moonlights as a dance instructor, McShane the needle eater, Jean Harlow, the shell mound’s residue of the Gulg’s ancient citizens; they’re all here, and much more: a wonderful gallery, funny and sad and hopeful, no nonsense, and forever interesting. Evelyn Duncan’s new collection is the real stuff, and I love it”– Richard Frost.
