Plain Sight

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Plain Sight is an exquisite book of poems by David Bergman, "a post-modern master of the lyric narrative poem," according to Daniel Mark Epstein. Now in his 70s, and having lived with Parkinson's for eight years, Bergman offers up poems about aging parents, love, chronic illness, and friendship that constantly surprise us in their twists and turns, their verbal brilliance, and their wit. Ultimately, Plain Sight is a deep celebration of life in all of its pain and grace.--Publisher.
