Taylor Strickland's Commonplace Book moves across the Atlantic from the poet's native United States to the landscape and seascape of Scotland, exploring through its inquiring lines the beauty of the terrain and the complexity of human life. Commonplace Book features poetry of fresh and dextrous language, firmly rooted in tradition, alive to the "melon-light dripping from each rock/ like meltwater."
