"This sequence is Vincent O'Sullivan's sixth volume of verse. The author comments: While I was reading in New England history, I was drawn to the eighteenth-century theologian Jonathan Edwards - to his certainty and to his awesome precision. At the same time I read Kafka. What went on about me from day to day, and the way the present is always shadowed and crosshatched by the strength of the past, quite naturally took the imprint of these two men as well. It semed to me that neither of their extremes could ever account for what one knew about life, yet to ignore them was to know very little either. These are the poems - of love, place, seasons, reflections, whatever - that comes from that time."--Back cover.
