A striking new poetry collection from the author of The Conversation Open House reveals David Brooks awardwinning talent as a writer and imaginative scholar. Opening the house of his life and extending naturally the striking love poetry of his last volume, The Balcony, Brooks arrestingly confessional poems range in scale from observations of the smallest creatures underfoot stepped over, left in peace to acknowledgements both of the smallness of human endeavour and the catastrophic effects of our custodianship. Vital in all senses, these are poems through which to view the world afresh. This much anticipated new volume is at once powerful, resonant and unreserved.
