Cast as a dialogue among six interlocuters, this lyric, pensive blend of poetry and prose considers light from a variety of perspectives—philosophical, physical, ethical, and metaphorical—all of them beautiful. As with so much of Roubaud’s work, a delicate humor and a deep compassion engage to create a lovely and responsible text.

About the Author
JACUES ROUBAUD, the author of many volumes of poetry and novels, is among France's leading contemporary poets. An active member of Oulipo, he imparts a rigor to his poetry that's always lively and always rooted in real life. He has been extensively translated into English by Rosmarie Waldrop and others, including The Plurality of Worlds of Lewis (1995) Hortence in Exile (1992) The Great Fire of London (1991).
