Enright's voice is, as ever, self-deprecating, perceptive, and devastatingly witty. He revels as he despairs of our absurd and chaotic existence. Through these well-crafted lyrical poems parade divine mistakes and mortal embarrassments; double lives and single deaths; the dust heap of history; and over it all, the spectacle of the devil walking up and down.
