They present us with, or return us to, a complicated, violent, poignant, weird, and mysterious world--a world which is very particularly his, and also our own, re-sung. For some time now I have believed McCann to be one of the finest poets writing today.--Maggie Nelson\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMcCann demonstrates that the truth surrounds us all; our best way of connecting with it is through compassion and love. With equal parts exuberance and dread, the speaker encourages us to 'waste the whole day feeling these things.'--\u003ci\u003eBoston Review\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThing Music\u003c\/i\u003e is full of flesh, of creatures tangled in their worlds.
