Very Good- No Jacket. 79 p.; VG-, book is dented at bottom of spine, otherwise clean, solid, unmarked. "Well-known for his eleven previous books of poems, Kevin Roberts breaks new ground as he recounts his struggle with cancer...At times stark and bitter, at times humorous and ironic, the poems reveal the mental anguish and physical pain, the isolation and loss of self-esteem that cancer and its treatment inevitably bring. A master craftsman, Roberts takes us inside the cancer experience, finding words to give expression to what is virtually inexpressible." 8vo-over 7¾"-9¾" tall.
