Professions Condition:Very Good Habit 3: Put First ThingsProfessions is a poet's directory of heartbreak. The backbone of this collection is a cycle of fractured relationships, where professional preoccupations tear lovers apart as distrust and incomprehension brew. Set against this are glimpses of indestructible intimacy between a mother, a granddaughter, and a friend. Amanda Chong's poems observe the doomed practice of the heart: solitary experiences, never fully nor mutually understood until too late.
