Almost, with Tenderness by Maya Caspari

Maya Caspari's Almost, with Tenderness offers a true poetics of intimacy. To read these fantastically textured yet accessible poems is to become immersed in a breathable, humming environment. Foals may sing in this city collection that teems with life that closes in, that holds, that distances.

"Caspari's work will ease you into the most lovable negotiations, but it will never 'settle'. This is brilliant." - Anthony V. Capildeo
