Description
Billy Collins' latest collection of poems, Water, Water, is a wondrous exploration of the joys and mysteries of daily life. With his trademark lyrical informality, Collins invites us to slow down and glimpse the elevated in the ordinary. In this collection of sixty new poems, Collins captures common and uncommon events with equal fascination, from a cat leaning to drink from a swimming pool to an astronaut reciting Emily Dickinson from outer space. His poems begin in clarity but end with a whiff of mystery, creating moments of delight that linger long after the final line is read. Through his vigilant attention and respect for the peripheral, Collins reveals the beauty in the everyday, asking us to see the world anew. With its unique blend of wit, tenderness, and insight, Water, Water is a pleasure to read and easy to give.
