<b>The poems in LOVE TRAINING are intimate in focus and scale: taut and contemplative, they ruminate on family, exile, romantic love, and the vagaries of human perception.</b><p>LOVE TRAINING, which gathers poems from several of Andr¿Neuman¿s books into a single unified collection, is divided into three sections. The first, the titular "Love Training," focuses on family (and its history), loss, relationships, love, and a sense of anchoring in the world. The second, ¿Fictions of Sight,¿ are associated with questions of perception, perspective, and creativity. And the third, ¿I Don¿t Know Why¿ ¿ which is the first phrase of every poem in the section ¿ is a whimsical set of interconnected poems that ask unanswered questions; it serves as a kind of coda to the book. While Andr¿Neuman is a celebrated and widely translated novelist, he is also a lucid, sensitive, incisive ¿ and quite prolific ¿ poet. LOVE TRAINING is the first English translation of his poetry.</p>
