Easing the Gravity Field: Poems of Science and Love by Christopher Southgate

One of the most enjoyable works of poetry I have read in recent years. Very perceptive, thoughtful and full of humor even while discussing serious and substantive ideas and concepts which range from the beauty of a Vermeer painting to the marriage of Marilyn Monroe and Joe DiMaggio or even the enjoyment of an avocado.
