These poems are inhabited by strong personalities -- by lovers and family and cats and artists both present and past -- none of them content to stand in the background.
I really love William's work. So many wonderful lines. This last section is long and complicated. I put the book down for a long time, but when I came back to these prose poems, I understood much better than when I was reading them earlier. I have a much deeper appreciation now. I just hope William will keep writing!
