Paperback. With tactile eroticism coursing through, this work presents poems that never give up hope; they exhibit a tenacious optimism - or at least a steely pragmatism - that says: we have what we are given, there is no alternative, and we all must find what joy we can in life, and in its living. Num Pages: 80 pages. BIC Classification: DSC. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 197 x 135 x 9. Weight in Grams: 112.

Num Pages: 80 pages. BIC Classification: DCF. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 201 x 136 x 8. Weight in Grams: 110.
