"Brognano populates the cosmos of these poems with a smattering of hard-luck characters, lovers attempting (sometimes successfully) to grasp fleeting moments of carnal gratification and transcendent connection, seekers with hints of transport in their eyes, and flora and fauna anthropomorphized intensely enough to suggest a panpsychist metaphysics.
