Delivery fee: Select location
Governor General''s Award-finalist Steven Heighton employs his signature blend of emotional fierceness and linguistic beauty to tap into "This whim / against what drifts to dark." The Address Book is a collection of remarkably well-crafted love letters, letters of loss, and lyrical moments of complaint and redress where music and intelligence are the last guard against wind walls of real grief. Elegiac, angry, tender, and brazenly heart-felt, these poems achieve their effect through total conviction; a complete immersion in the rich palette of human emotions — comfortable and otherwise. The collection''s second half includes the author''s versions from Western poetry''s sustaining giants, including Beaudelaire, Rimbaud, Sappho, Catullus, Homer, and Rilke.
