Paperback. An elegy for lost childhood, for a culture and language lost to the turmoil of history, and it is also a glimpse of the source of the writer's delicate, mysterious imagination. By focussing on writing about beautiful things, it takes the poems beyond narrative to these sensual images - given to us in a language that is cursive and exquisite. Num Pages: 80 pages. BIC Classification: DCF. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 197 x 132 x 7. Weight in Grams: 108.
