The Coronary Garden, Ann Townsend

$13.95

The Coronary Garden is a collection braiding love and mortality—in "Love Poem, Unwritten," Townsend identifies a physical abnormality of the poet's heart as a figure for human love: fragile, vulnerable creatures, our very imperfection opens us to connection and grace.
