About this book:

An accessible, engaging collection in which the poet expresses his personal experiences in fluid, sensitive language and enters into dialogue with poets who preceded him. The poems do not shy away from addressing deeply personal experiences as well as social and political issues with honesty and openness, and they consistently surprise with fresh perspectives. Water serves throughout as a central metaphor for flow, change, and adaptability – the essential element for life in a poetic universe.
