A book of bread

"We are what we eat, the old saying goes, and what we take into us, whether in the form of experience or food, is what sustains us. In A Book of Bread, his twelfth collection of poems, Bruce Meyer celebrates the banquet that is our lives, loves, joys, and fears. And though we may not live by bread alone, in the language of loaves Meyer celebrates our daily bread and the ways in which it nourishes our souls."--Page 4 of cover.
