THE
SECOND BLUSH
Once again demonstrating the “luxuriantly
sensual imagination” (Washington Post) last
seen in her Cornucopia, this time Molly Peacock
celebrates marriage and a two-track life with
the man who became her husband.
As teenage sweethearts
sperated by other obligations, they found each
other again at midlife, the poignant sonnet-based
poems take as their starting point her husband’s
survival from a life-threatening disease, addressing
the contradictory ideas of planning for the future
along with the urgency to make the present brilliantly
alive.
