Erotikon : Poems

How do we discover our deepest desires, those that at once elude and define us? In Erotikon, award-winning poet Susan Mitchell invites us to make that discovery -- and in the process, to understand our true selves. In language both staggeringly beautiful and wonderfully mischevious, Mitchell explores the primal , transformative power of our sexual appetites. Drawing us in like a lover through her sensual world, she moves from seduction to surrender to symbiosis and the ultimate communion we long for in our lives on earth.
