Tesserae by John Hollander
"Tesserae" is a collection of poetry that delves into the intricate mosaic of human experience, blending classical themes with modern sensibilities. The poet employs a rich tapestry of language and form to explore the nuances of memory, art, and the passage of time. With a masterful command of verse, the poems in this collection reflect on the fragments of life that come together to form a coherent, albeit complex, picture of the world and our place within it. The work invites readers to consider the pieces of their own lives as part of a larger, interconnected whole, much like the tiny tiles in a mosaic that create a complete image when viewed from a distance.
