- Summary:
- In gorgeous and tender prose, Smith weaves together the story of his difficult childhood and his encounters with "the old people" to tell the story of a life shaped by poetry. "HamletUs Dresser" is both a redemptive memoir of a man made whole by art, and an intimate encounter with the plays and sonnets of Shakespeare.
