Opening with selections from her newest collection, \u003ci\u003eLast Day on Earth in the Eternal City\u003c\/i\u003e, and including selections from her acclaimed previous books, these poems illuminate connections between art, memory, and desire.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEstes weaves together classical mythology and contemporary longing, European art and American landscapes, creating a tapestry where Dante converses with Miles Davis, swallows become stars, and the past ignites our lives. Her signature style -- playful yet profound, erudite yet accessible -- transforms everyday moments into revelations through stunning juxtapositions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhether exploring the mosaics of Hagia Sophia, the vineyards of Burgundy, or a mother's handwriting, Estes finds the sacred in the quotidian.
