Born into a world of wealth and pleasure, Annette Vallon enjoys the privileges of aristocracy, but a burning curiosity and headstrong independence set her apart from other women of her class. Spoiled by the novels of Rousseau, she refuses to be married unless it is for passion. Her stubborn devotion to her romantic principles bears the sweetest fruit when William Wordsworth, a young English poet, enters her life. She will be his mistress, his muse, his obsession.

This remarkable collection of 100 short poems, presented in both English and Spanish, is testimony to Tipton's skill at reducing experiences and feelings to their essence. Over several decades he has developed a fine reputation for this. The poems, each only three lines long, are largely set in Mexico and Latin America and they are generally about the vagaries and vicissitudes of love-readers find them humorous, erotic, filled with life, tender, sardonic, frank, honest, and even spiritual. They often touch the heart.
