My Work Among the Faithful

by Lisa Beskin

The poems in this first collection by Lisa Beskin explore the elastic, chancy nature of the self, the whims and slippages of narrative, and the mysteries of language--flawed, glorious, limited, illimitable. With great wit, humor, and naked grace, the poems compile a fresh lexicon of human emotion and appetite.
