Beautifully shaped and with language full of sensuous intimations, here is the latest volume of poems by Steve Luxton. From the tensile short lyrics of “Hermit Crab Song” to the loosely sashaying rhythms of “Morning After: At the Dacha,” Luxton’s sustained vision compels and fascinates.

Like the being in the title poem “Iridium,” the reader is urged for a moment to relinquish the grotesque world of appearances to find shapes that sound, touch, and endure.
