The result is a book of discursive meditations that will amply reward the reader. Part travelogue, part pilgrimage in which the shrines remain hidden until they are recognized later, Larry Levis's startling and complex fifth book of poems is about the enslavement to desire for personal freedom, and the awareness of its price.

Establishes him indisputably and once and for all as one of the younger masters.
* North American Review *In this book, Levis descends through memory and history with bravery and authority. He seems to be writing the poems we all need to read right now.
