註釋
An unsentimental exploration of childhood and parenthood, The Playhouse Near Dark delves into the marvels, terrors and transformations of a new life. Pregnancy and birth are profound experiences, both creative and alienating; the infant--"this force / this vortex of sheer need"--is as powerful as he is vulnerable. In language that is often startlingly intense yet always accessible, this book probes the ways the arrival of a child shapes our perceptions of everything in our world.
