With these love poems, infused with longing and sensuality, 'How More Beautiful You Are' presents some of the most personal and earthy verses from award-winning author Samuel Peralta. In this celebration, Peralta navigates the vagaries of the heart, taking us with him on a journey from youthful uncertainty to tremulous passion, from unabashed eroticism to enduring relationships. As with his other works - 'Sonata Vampirica', 'Sonnets from the Labrador' - Peralta shows his skill in merging classical structure with re-invented metaphor: sonnets and space-time, couplets and chaos theory. But through it all, 'How More Beautiful You Are' begins and ends with love, charged with an intense romanticism that will inspire lovers, readers, and poets.
