"Hamilton is able to sustain a complex narrative through stripped-down poems . . . leavened by a wry humor." -- The New York Times Book Review I wanted to read an essay in your wrist. The afternoon seemed endless. Out the window, a lane to the right was bending away, taking with it the figure moving down it.

And they inhabit the realm of contemplation which, for Hamilton, is charged with eros.
