limdz's review against another edition
4.0
Nathan says himself, on the back of this book, something about a few obsessive themes of his which appear in _Returning Your Call_. I like writers -- especially poets -- who admit to these obsessions, and the one that stuck out to me was his theme mourning things that don't quite fit together but should. That is the prevailing sentiment (for me) of this gem that I picked up in a small used bookstore. The poems are at once heartbreaking and reassuring, and some of Nathan's lines make me want to stand up, spin in circles, and read them again.
