"Like Hesiod's Works and Days, Mayes's collection explores the art of living and the transformations of one's life while working the land as a farmer. Written as an abecedarius, each poem's Italian title begins with a different letter of the alphabet, from Ago (needle) to Zappa (hoe). Mayes comes to realize that his "fields are poetry and olives," and his furrows and lines are seeded with Dante and Virgil, Robert Johnson and Jussi Bjorling."--BOOK JACKET.
