About this audiobook

In Perdido, Elaine Terranova' s seventh collection, the poet ponders the predicament of loss— " I want the dead but I am beside / the living." But for Terranova, perdido does not mean loss merely. Like the music from which she borrows her term, these poems bound with resilience.
