In
Nicky
Beer's
The
Diminishing
House,
birds
are
disemboweled,
a
father
is
mourned,
and
a
basement
fills
with
snakes.
This
first
book
of
resonant
lyric
poetry
meditates
on
such
subjects
as
animals,
art,
and
anatomy,
and
transforms
the
familiar
and
mundane
into
something
strangely
mythic.
Beer
explores
the
exhilaration
and
frustration
of
living
in
a
sensuous,
unstable
world
filled
with
grief
and
desire.
