As the writer Ha Jin once wrote, it is "remarkable for the stout spirit of the speaker who dares to be funny while tackling such an austere subject as death."

Allen Grossman's newest work Descartes' Loneliness blends the comic and tragic.

Poems such as "The Famished Dead," where the poet is visited by lost loved ones, "one at a time," confirm Jorie Graham's observation that "from the bottom reaches of the underworld, to the elevations from which one need cry to be heard Grossman invents such peace as Poetry can invent."Binding Type: Paperback

Rottie Approved
Size: Large
My Rottie loves playing with this ball, either alone or with me. The first day she chewed a corner of the handle off (the handle is still usable), but then she figured out what it was for and has a blast with it. She has done no further damage to it, and it is strong enough to play tug. It's her favorite toy.

Not good for small dog or puppy and only one came
Size: Large
Only one arrived- expecting two, as the picture showed. And honestly my dog keeps getting its jaw hooked on the product. I wouldnt recommend this product for a smaller jawed dog or puppy.
