Stephen Dunn 
Riffs and Reciprocities: Prose Pairs [EPUB ebook] 

‘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.
