商品簡介
"John [Freeman] delights in and is thoroughly devoted to writing and to books. He is my kind of person."—Louise Erdrich
In his travels, whenever John Freeman arrives at a new place, the first thing he does is look for a barbershop and gets a haircut. This simple ritual draws him closer to the world and the community he's entering.
In his first book of poetry, Freeman—best known as editor of Freeman's Journal—maps the present by way of the past, drawing upon memories of childhood, family, and former loves. Simultaneously international and intimately domestic, Maps is nostalgic with a cool head, and able to examine the world with insightful compassion and grace.
From "Legend":
A soul is not a
diamond pressed
down into something
hard like rock,
but rather, the word
my father's father
said to himself on
those too-cold
California nights when all
he could see was
the work ahead of him,
the dead behind —
her name
He'd say her name.
