From the Back Cover
"Vivid, thoughtful, scorching-Borrowed Dress speaks back to our impermanence, to the wistfulness of the past and the amnesia of the future, to the dual treasons of speech and silence, to the spaces between lovers, to the nothingness that keeps peeking through everything. Watch out, this passionate book flames in your hands and burns with a radiant light."-Edward Hirsch, author of How to Read a Poem and Fall in Love with Poetry
