Drawing from his experience as a translator, Forrest Gander includes in the first, powerfully elegiac section a version of a poem by the Spanish mystical poet St. John of the Cross. He continues with a long multilingual poem examining the syncretic geological and cultural history of the U.S. border with Mexico. The poems of the third section-a moving transcription of Gander's efforts to address his mother dying of Alzheimer's-rise from the page like hymns, transforming slowly from reverence to revelation. Gander has beencalled one of our most formally restless poets, and these new poems express a characteristically tensile energy and, as one critic noted, "the most eclectic diction since Hart Crane."

Gander uses geology, and his training as a geologist, as a means for exploring what it is we stand on and for - emotionally, psychologically, and politically. His poems and the book's single essay make a passionate case for the vitality and necessity of other modes for making sense and experiencing meaning in a fragile world, among others.

Poet Forrest Gander's mesmerizing series of poems - hinging around a dance schematic - that captures and extends Eiko & Koma's performance with lyrical intensity and vividness
