Description
A collection of poems by Anne Michaels. The poems are meditations on
how love changes in order to survive, how we move from "obsolete
science" to new perceptions, and how, in her words, "the same
loneliness that closes us/ Opens us again".

Reviews
-
" The poems in ' The Weight of Oranges' go way beyond games or fashion or politics...They represent the human being entire."
Michael Ondaatje
-
" 'Skin Divers' is a series of meditations on the intensity of love and has an intimacy at times so tender it hurts...Love is profoundly explored"
The Times
-
" Michaels is a marvellous poet, a beautiful word- weaver, who combines intellect with lived insight"
