I Play His Red Guitar - Charles Coté
Charles Coté's remarkable and gorgeous poems, by turns tragic and joyful, lyric and narrative, render precise incisions into our hearts as only the purest poetry can do as they remind us of our deepest losses and most beloved connections. Here are poems that sing us back to the moments in our lives that broke our hearts, as well as the moments that led us to recovery. Here are poems of losing a son, of making sense and order out of the unspeakable, about making ourselves whole again: poems that show how the miracle of poetry will keep us alive.
