Softcover. Condition: Good. 1. In Domain of Perfect Affection, Robin Becker explores the conditions under which we experience and resist pleasure: in beauty salon, summer camp, beach, backyard, or museum; New York or New Mexico. The Mosaic injunction against / the graven image inspires meditations on drawings by Drer, Evans, Klee, Marin, and del Sarto. To the consolations of art and human intimacy, Becker brings playfulness-Worry stole the kayaks and soured the milk-suffused with self-knowledge: Worry wraps her long legs / around me, promises to be mine forever. In The New Egypt, the narrator mines her familys legacy: From my father I learned the dignity / of exile and the fire of acquisition, / not to live in places lightly, but to plant / the self like an orange tree in the desert. Beckers shapely stanzas-couplets, tercets, quatrains, pantoum, sonnet, syllabics-subvert her colloquial diction, creating a seamless merging of subject and form. Luminous, sensual, these poems offer sharp pleasures as they argue, elegize, mourn, praise, and sing.
