The Naked Man

A collection of bittersweet poems that explore the consequences of entering a relationship with a man who refuses to renounce adolescent angst and grow into manhood. He is a charmer; intelligent, funny and oozing sex appeal. Encounters with this 'puer aeternas' veer from sad or tragic to funny. Most women have encountered the Naked Man at some time in their lives. They will recognize him immediately and delight in seeing their own experiences, reactions and emotions validated in these revealing snapshots by poet, Christine Irving.
