"Learning a First Language" is a complex and beautifully crafted
collection of skillfully interwoven poetry and prose that explores
the themes of memory, regret, hope and the relationship between art
and passion.
It begins with "love," a reactionary "stream of consciousness"
poem written in response to an unexpected and unsolicited marriage
proposal, and ends with the final chapter of the author's
meandering narrative account of a character known only as "The
Artist." His story twists and turns its way through the text,
shedding light on both the inspirations and contrary emotions that
shape Ray's poetry.
Blending elements of fiction and memoir, this collection
provides readers not only with a glimpse into the author's personal
experiences with love and loss, but also with a universal love
story that reminds us of the importance and necessity of loving
with abandon.
