In the Surgical Theatre

Chosen by Louise Gluck for the American Poetry Review's First Book Prize, this volume comprises three sections--body, home, world--that engage both international politics (taking on Slobodan Milosevic, for instance) and intimate pleasures and disappointments, even taking an investigation of the body to the microscopic level of bacteria.
