Kamran Javadizadeh in The New Yorker

 Professor Kamran Javadizadeh has another piece in The New Yorker, this time a review/essay centered on the recently released book of poems Couplets: A Love Story, by Maggie Millner. Javadizadeh's essay delves into Millner's use of rhyme and other poetic conventions, the relationship of rhyme to eroticism, and the transformation of the self in romantic relationships (among other things). Be forewarned, you will never look at IKEA beds the same way after reading this piece!

You can read the piece in full on The New Yorker's website.
