Balzac’s Robe and Other Poems is a chapbook whose poems are both humorous and serious. They take a careful look at a hawk on the western California coastline, at a clean room, at love and loss, at a ribald dinner party, and other quirky encounters. These poems are a selected from the poems Marello wrote over a span of twenty-five years, from the 1990s to the present.
