What the book does<\/h2>\n

Love changes the speaker\u2019s scale: it affects desire, thought, speech, memory, comedy, shame and bodily experience. It can lift the speaker toward form, or expose every weak place in him.<\/p>\n

Rhyme and meter give the poems pressure. They make longing answer to order, turn embarrassment into cadence and force feeling to become memorable speech.<\/p>\n

The beloved woman often becomes the center of value. She may appear as muse, judge, danger, angel, temptation, memory or absence. Through her, the speaker sees the shape of his own desire.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
