Exhilarating.―Victoria Chang, author of With My Back to the World

Told with frankness and a masterful wielding of image, Signs, Music is so tenderly rendered that I found myself gasping.―Shira Erlichman, author of Odes to Lithium

Acclaimed poet Raymond Antrobus returns with Signs, Music, a stunning book of poetry that captures imminent fatherhood and the arrival of a child.

Structured as a two-part sequence poem, Signs, Music explores the before and after of becoming a father with tenderness and care--the cognitive and emotional dissonances between the hypothetical and the real of fatherhood, the ways our own parents shape the parents we become, and how fraught with emotion, curiosity, and recollection this irreversible transition to fatherhood makes one's inner landscape.

At once searching and bright, deeply rooted and buoyant, Raymond Antrobus's Signs, Music is a moving record of the changes and challenges encompassing new parenthood and the inevitable cycles of life, death, birth, renewal, and legacy--a testament to the joy, uncertainty, and incredible love that come with bringing new life into the world.
