The Perishing : Poems, Paperback / softback Book

The Perishing : Poems Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

This collection's searing poems travel between the frozen moment of personal time and the inexorable sweep of history.

The poet tracks genocide's record from Tamerlane to Pol Pot, an exiled tyrant's return to the killing fields, and Penelope's embracing her inevitable loss of Odysseus upon his return.

In each poem, Santos tests the delicate balance between life and art.
