Riffs is the story of a passionate love affair, told in vintage Lee style -- with whoops, deep chords, and headlong improvisational arcs. We hear Bach, Bo Diddley, Bird; the news is heartache and being. Celebratory, catastrophic, the poem tracks ways in which eros and our lives are made mutually accountable.

Riffs is a landmark achievement from the poet of Civil Elegies and The Gods.

Published in 1993, this was Dennis Lee's first book of adult poetry in 14 years.
