It's a fantastic epic poem about several couples (one gay, I think) in modern(ish) day San Francisco. Seth has an incredible and enviable vocabulary and, to bank on that cliche, he makes writing verse seem easy. <br/><br/><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/list/9254?utm_medium=api&utm_source=blog_review">View all my reviews.</a>
