The difficulties that language presents have their analogues in life. Whether posed, or proposed, or just tenuously poised on the thin line that divides articulation from understanding, the phrases and phrasings of Tom Beckett’s elegant and nervous Parts and Other Pieces challenge the givens of experience.
