Inhaltsangabe

swallows capering
in the purple twilight—
the life

A collection of poems about the birds. The poems witness and pay homage to the many bird species vanishing in a rapidly changing world. Ruggieri's words place us amongst the birds, rendering their lives and the places they inhabit real to involve us on a person level.
