Description

“Peacock is in peak form in these seductive poems that swing and twirl . . . valiant, trenchant, funny, and on point.”—Booklist

Demonstrating once again her “luxuriantly sensual imagination” (Washington Post), Molly Peacock celebrates marriage and a two-track life with the man who became her husband.

Reviews
