Nominated for the National Book Award--The eighth book by one of our greatest poets

Always, These gigantic inconceivables.
Always, What will have been done to me?
And so we don our mental armor,
flex, thrill, pay the strict attention we always knew we should.
A violent alertness, the muscularity of risk,
though still the secret inward cry: What else, what more?
--from Risk

Repair is body work in C. K. Williams's sensual poems, but it is also an imaginative treatment of the consternations that interrupt life's easy narrative. National Book Critics Circle Award-winner Williams keeps the self in repair despite love, death, social disorder, and the secrets that separate and join intimates. These forty poems experiment with form but maintain what Alan Williamson has heralded Williams for having so steadily developed from French influences: the poetry of the sentence.

Repair is a 1999 National Book Award Finalist for Poetry and the winner of the 2000 Pulitzer Prize for Poetry.

Color: Upgrade-apricot, Size: 15.6 Inch, Color: Upgrade-apricot, Size: 15.6 Inch
Perfect for work! I use it for laptop, charger and few items necessary at work. I have a few blocks to walk from parking to work location and this bag has replaced last backpack and purse. Much easier to carry one item than two or more. Plus, it has enough room if you need to use it for clothes and toiletries (road-trip) or carry-on.

Size up
While I like the concept, it’s not true to size. I cut the tag off thinking this fit well, as I wear 38G in most HSIA bras, I found that throughout the day this rode up and gave me “quad-breast.” It also broke the skin on my back where the anti-slip rubber was on the band. It has potential, maybe if you size up with band and cup.
