These carefully-controlled and eloquent poems know the subtle and deep consequences from each small gesture; the ripple-effect across each story, the altering of lives and history; the still, quiet centre from which it all begins.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRobert Peake\u003c\/strong\u003e is a British-American poet living near London.
