TSAR Books - Love in a Time of Technology
Sasenarine Persaud website
Whether in the
heart of downtown Toronto, a bookstore in Boston, the
courtyard of the Taj Mahal—through the portals of
cyberspace—on the banks of a Tampa river, or a journey
through time to Georgetown, an old colonial capital, love
circumscribes everything. But this book is no wide-eyed
outpouring; it probes and questions concepts and beliefs,
pokes fun at age, companions taken for granted, and the
realization that, like a mannequin in a Manhattan
storefront, love is “faceless and, almost, raceless.” If
love circumscribes everything, these poems show that
everything—economics, politics, ambitions and exiles—also
circumscribes love.
