The Book of Things - Paperback

by Ilhan Berk (Author)

Unparalleled in the English language, The Book of Things, Berk's uniquely compelling lyric trilogy, is an uncommon meditation on the inner life of common things. Mud, bras, slugs and doore - Berk sings them all in this twisting, labyrithine song of the strange and sensual, by turns playful and surprising, learned and hilarious, beautiful and unsettling in its quikiness. Berk's tireless journey into the unknown, The Book of Things is a testament to the poet's undying appetite for engagement and renewal, his perennial call to awakening.
