At the centre of this collection, which includes groups of elegies and love poems, there is a short sonnet sequence which concentrates themes apparent elsewhere in the book; the individual’s responsibility for his own choices, the artist’s commitment to his vocation, the vulnerability of all in the face of circumstance and death.
