Nuptials At Vespers And Other Strains is his eighth collection of 44 poems. These poems particularly handle questions of identity, delineating the poet-persona's struggle to detach himself from the bard and be like any ordinary person in society. After a bootless tussle and a depression, he makes friends with the poet .Together they view their situation as a marriage and a prison full of pain, torture and suffering. They desire to end their affliction fighting together. There is a hint of regret, disappointment and even bitterness but the prevailing mood of love and concern spell hope in darkness. 608 $aElectronic books. 676 $a823 700 $aNgong Kum Ngong$b John$01539996 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910788135503321 996 $aNuptials At Vespers And Other Strains$93791325 997 $aUNINA
