Produktbeschreibung
The poems in Pantry take their titles from kitchen objects. Some are common to most kitchens, like dishwashers and double boilers, and others are less common, like pie birds and olive pitters.

The poems in this book begin here, in the closely packed pantry, but then slip beneath the material objects to explore the domestic lives that spark, seethe, and sometimes explode around them.
