Description

We Are What We Love collects three of Bernard Pozier’s most recent books of poetry: Agonique agenda, Post-scriptum and Le temps bouge la Terre passe, translated into English by Antonio D’Alfonso. The first narrates the loved one’s journey from illness to her passing away; the second deals will memory, love, and Mexico; the last is a meditation of time and place that we are temporarily asked to inhabit.
