For despite their rustic setting and the beauty of their phrasing, the poems in Virgil's first collection are also grounded in reality.

The element is the point at which natural talent meets personal passion. This book identifies a crisis in education and business: whether it's a child bored in class, a disillusioned or misused employee or someone who feels frustrated but can't quite explain why, too many people don't realize what they are capable of achieving.
