Unparalleled in the English language, Book of Things, Berk’s uniquely compelling lyric trilogy, is an uncommon meditation on the inner life of common things. Mud, bras, slugs and doors – Berk sings them all in this twisting, labyrinthine song of the strange and sensual, by turns playful and surprising, learned and hilarious; beautiful and unsettling in its quirkiness. Berk’s tireless journey into the unknown, Book of Things is a testament to the poet’s undying appetite for engagement and renewal, his perennial call to awakening.
