Official synopsis Publisher
Poetry. THE APRICOT AND THE MOON is a collection of mostly narrative poems that discuss the relationships between language, art, nature and time. The manuscript moves from existential questions, to personal reflections, and on to a bit of whimsy, because obviously poets do not have all the answers. Using the moon as a talisman and a touchstone, Essinger writes about the known world–the intimacy of nature, the wisdom of the skies–and then moves on to the wonder of the unknown and how it is illuminated in our lives.
