Knygos aprašymas

The collection's cornerstones are two rhapsodies - long poems which combine the richness of a novel, the intimacy of a lyric, and the immediacy of a performance. At the climax of the first, the poet meets his double, a dying boy whose shameful moniker is Baldie. As if in response to this explosive confrontation, the poet dares to write a second, wilder Rhapsody - a confessional, improvisatory fantasia, virtually a book in itself, where abjection blossoms into formally-innovative extravagance. Three sequences complete the collection: Piano Life, a series of haunted meditations on music and mortality; Erotic Collectibles, a disarmingly unsentimental account of sexual awakening; and Star Vehicles, in which the poet sees his perplexities reflected in Bette Davis, Sophia Loren, Ida Lupino, and other leading ladies.
