I should never ask / directions to my childhood, writes Fred DAguiar: there is no way back home. The Rose of Toulouse is a book of geographies tracing the various places the poet has lived, their histories, and his own history as he travels away from who he was. His transformations and shifts between Britain, Guyana and the USA are his identity: Each year I travel, my passport photo / looks less like me. In both flexible free verse and more formally patterned poems, DAguiar conveys the fragility of flesh and the transience of memories.
