Book Synopsis Riffs and Reciprocities: Prose Pairs by : Stephen Dunn
Book excerpt: "This Astaire-like glide through our not-so-idle talk is a pleasure."—Publishers Weekly Stephen Dunn experiments with short, related pieces that play off each other in the manner of jazz improvisations. The resulting pairs cover such subjects as "Scruples/Saints," "Hypocrisy/Precision," and "Anger/Generosity." The wisdom and startling turns we've come to expect from Dunn are everywhere in the ninety miniatures (forty-five pairs) that comprise this volume.
