[3.5 stars]
A Symmetry was a fine read. Banias weaves together metaphors and floral prose and poetry about language, community, gender, and travel.

While it was somewhat overly verbose in certain pieces I did enjoy the poems about Greece and the imagery he captured in it.

My favorite poems are "We Don't Drive To The Sea But We Talk About The Sea" and "Curriculum."
