The collection features fifty poems that explore themes of service, longing, and the search for permanence, drawing inspiration from both Chaucer and the unique experiences of clerks in retail. Reece's background at Brooks Brothers adds depth, contrasting the artificial brightness of the mall with the sacredness of a Gothic cathedral. The poems evoke a sense of yearning, capturing moments from the lives of salesmen to the beauty of a Miami dusk and the solitude of a Minnesota farm. Gluck praises the collection for its sophisticated craft and profound humanity.
