Catherine’s Laughter

For grownups who’ve begun to wonder whether romance is just for the kids, C. K. Williams has answered with Catherine’s Laughter, the short and sweet story of the poet’s long love affair with his wife. Is romance still possible, after the excited beginnings? Can a poet find sustaining love in marriage? Yes, the poet declares, yes –even grownups can fall in love, and keep falling.

C. K. Williams has won the Pulitzer Prize, the National Book Award, the National Book Critics Circle Award, and the Ruth Lilly Prize, among other honors.
