内容简介:
"Somewhere in the distance a homeless man wiped away his tears, raised his head, and thought, If it rains I don't need an umbrella, I'll just rise above the clouds." From tales of junkies to snobs, and from mere trivial anecdotes to philosophy, this first collection of powerful free verse poetry from Irish writer Gavin Duff is bred from the need of a generation to create an outer pivot around which they can, as disillusioned human beings, voice their aspirations and grievances. There is no single attitude or group for them to speak of and the failure of most common beliefs to explain their uncertainty is the reason for this book.
