Description
Love and Surgery is the third book in the trilogy Life Series. In this collection the poet describes life events in three acts: the magical courtship and marriage to a woman he met by chance, the subsequent devastation and loss of his third wife and the amputation of his leg after years of suffering with a congenital deformity. It is an elegy to love, loss and letting go. The poems exist in a kaleidoscopic landscape before concluding with a beautiful homage to Mary Oliver and an acceptance of the existence of psychic and physical pain as a part of life.
