  The oppositional emotions that follow the loss of a loved one are beautifully articulated in this poetry collection. While humour, fond remembrance, and wry awareness break through, contrariness tinges many of the poems - rooted in rueful self-examination, in feelings of living at cross purposes with the expected and the polite, and in seeing the world aslant.
