This carefully organized sequence of 88 lyrics is a diary of a summer spent in Tuscany--part of the time spent with the Italian actress Eleanora Duse. The poems evoke specific times and places and they conjure up emotions, memories, and myths associated with each place. Beginning in early summer, they move through the seasons, changing in verse form and mood, and always reflecting the sensuous qualities of language.
