A flamenco dancer seduces his audience in Spain, and lovers travel through Istanbul. Writers live in exile while a menu for a dictator endangers the earth. The full moon shines over the Serengeti as nocturnal animals gather. Glaciers of Mount Kilimanjaro melt too quickly. A poet writes from his house near the beached skeleton of a whale. \u003ci\u003eLanterns in the Night Market\u003c\/i\u003e is a love letter to the world. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e MARY MORRIS is the author of three previous books of poetry: \u003ci\u003eEnter Water, Swimmer\u003c\/i\u003e (runner-up for The X.J.
