A mythic quotidian is recounted through rich and often confessional exposition: the love of a father for his daughter, of dear people and places, of curious insects and birds. Musing unapologetically on themes intimate and wistful, Halpern writes to French actresses, old lovers, a pot of stew, insomnia, and to friends past and present, sharing lessons of the literary world. As he reminisces on once-realities and questions his own observations—the duplicity of memory—these poems transcend form, the world presenting itself anew. Halpern is a literary icon, and in \u003ci\u003eAir\u003c\/i\u003e he proves that poetry is quite literally all around us.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Copper Canyon Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43227890286653,"sku":"9781556597251","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/0838\/9949\/files\/9781556597251_p0.jpg?v=1779538245","url":"https:\/\/www.tatteredcover.com\/products\/9781556597251","provider":"Tattered Cover","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
