Rays
Teasing, funny and celebratory Rays is a wry and tender lover's gift. Continuing Richard Price's virtuosic playfulness of form, it improvises on the formal shape of sonnet and canzone, charging them with the energy of blues and rock, glimpsing narratives of desire. In a restless, sleepless landscape where language becomes shrill, an alphabet of love poems creates a dreamy island, between the solace of haiku and the precisions of Emily Dickinson. The Renaissance poet Louise Labé and an imaginary band, The Loss Adjusters, sing the complex beauties of passion.

- "Centered on recurring themes of sleep and sleeplessness, this delicate collection of poetry explores the nuances of human relationships. Beginning provocatively with a?translation" of Shakespeare's 18th sonnet, the poems offer witty, tender, and lyrical reflections on the intricate suffusion of desire within both private and public forms of expression. Exploring the consequences of passion, this heartfelt work captures the exuberance?and struggle?of human love."@en
