Riassunto

These are love songs in the broadest sense, some dealing with inept love and the ironies and moral hypocrisies of sex and gender; but many more - in energetic, contentious, often twinkle-in-the-eye poems - dealing with moral dilemmas ranging from abortion to vertical-mindedness. The poems are "accessible" and rich in imagery, story, characters, and passion. And many are presented in voices as varied as those of Hildegard von Bingen and Gita Smith, Bag Lady, as Oedipus and a deadbeat dad; as Death Mother and a Chinese student at Tiananmen Square.
