Terrier, Worrier Deborah Eisenberg As she watches him create

As she watches him create his writing self

who developed delirium and never recovered

and Tenth of December is his most honest

back to Mother — to a truce

which has become a hit Broadway show and is now a film from Spike Lee on HBO

Terrier, Worrier Deborah Eisenberg As she watches him createA luminous exploration of thought by one of our most distinguished poets. "If sometimes I think of thoughts as being behind the eyes, sometimes I think of them more as floating, in a kind of cloud around the outside of my head." Part autobiography of thought, part philosophical tract, part poetics, a book about chickens and family and seasons, Terrier, Worrier is a literary sequence to be relished as language and as thought.
