    About this ebook

    In this wondrous new book of poems, Peter demonstrates yet again his mastery of the written word, of posing tension between self and other till it almost throttles the reader, or order versus disarray, of exotic places, dripping with history, currency, allusion, wit, the drip and wet of desire.
