Shaw probes the familiar and encounters the unexpected; in the apparently random he discerns a hidden order. Throughout, Shaw ponders the human frailties and strengths that continue to characterize us, with glances at the stresses of these millennial times that now test our mettle and jar our complacency. Often touched with humor, his perceptions are grounded in devoted observation of the changing world. As in his previous collections, Shaw in these poems unites conversational vigor with finely crafted metrical lines.American poetryAmerican literatureElectronic books.American poetry.American literature.811/.54Shaw Robert Burns1947-878776MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910454242803321Solving for X2491309UNINA
