Richard Aronowitz's Life Lessons is a book about coming into knowledge.
Not so much from reading, but from living close to the natural world, to family and to history.
Tied to a conviction that We are what we have always been, these thoughtful, well-crafted poems evoke an English pastoral tradition almost as a birthright, except that today the poet escapes, not the tensions of the Elizabethan Court, but the gargantuan features of an industrial economy.
