Description

From an argument I've taken with me is about travel - both about the poet's actual travels to the other side of the globe, and about travelling as a way of being in the world. Roberts journeys to Tibet and Nepal, but also to the more inscrutable countries of his Canadian family and childhood, and gives us haunting flashes of insight into these far-away and private territories.
