The Latin root of perceive means "to seize entirely," and that's exactly what these poems do. Here there is "no door / just the edge of an infinite pour" into motherhood, cities old and new, and the histories that comprise us. The centerpiece of the book is a series of poems revolving around a new mother, a mix of peril and ecstasy that suffuses the entire book, whether the speaker is beholding her adopted baby, a President finishing supper before declaring war, or an ambulance that "dazzles like a cocktail ring."
