In the spirit of Kierkegaard and his adherents, these poems emphasize the power and opportunity of solitude and the virtue of living alone without being flagrantly antisocial. There is virtue in partners keeping distance so as to avoid envelopment--and to spur creativity and contemplation. "Too much of a good thing" characterizes the plight of many marriages; keeping the desirable, provocative tension between people may be a coextension of less, not more, nearness.
