It’s
about relationships, whether the subject is an antiquated law about maimed

Welcome

It’s
a notable volume, and not only because it was the 2013 winner of the James
Laughlin Award for best second book of poetry from the Academy of American Poets. Weise’s first was The
Amputee’s Guide to Sex (2007), the title of which tells you at least some
of what you might expect in The Book of
Goodbyes.
