Poems that achieve a quiet, yet surprisingly intense emotional intensity: A History of the Common Scale is a wonderful introduction to the poetry of Edward Foster, whose words create a swirling, floating world. Identity is in the process of constant recreation, and hope tucks itself into despair. While many of the poems deal with how the individual deals with the inevitability of loss and change, they are courageous and good-humored.
