Love & Eden moves in nine stages, each one a different way of loving something: a childhood, a body of knowledge, a piece of ground, a person, a fear, the dead, the senses, a joke. A compelling and revealing journey in the shape of life. It opens in innocence, becomes curious about the world through poetry and science, settles into the ordinary pleasures of a garden and a marriage, and then turns toward what a long life eventually has to reckon with: broken hearts, real fear, and people who don't come back. Leveraging a wide range of poetic forms, there is something here for every reader at every stage of life.
