Sinopsis

Poetry. "These wonderful poems by Ruth Lepson are deeply felt meditations on family, friends, lovers, the people she 'can't leave behind.' The book begins with poems about places, mainly Swampscott, Massachusetts, a town on the ocean that she loves to visit. 'Time Line' then makes something like a drawing out of the past, and 'Function Theory' suggests a sort of mathematical model of a girl's thought processes. These are followed by several delicate poems about Ruth's aging parents and others about deceased friends. This private world is then enlarged, often with humor, to include strangers both overheard and seen, as well as works of art. These are the 'things I can name' out of which she makes her life"--Joel Sloman.
