For the past two decades Gregory Orr has been writing toward "the Book": an imagined tome containing every lyric poem and song ever written. Drawing from rich tradition, Selected Books of the Beloved is the culmination of that project and more- it is a celebration of the transformative power of poetry, and of our extraordinary capacity to feel and to love.
