Synopsis:

Time and space, desire and loss, memory and consciousness, culture and nature---all the things that matter most in this life are alive and thriving in this lovely new collection by Rob Merritt. “Any life, precisely described, is a work of art,” Merritt writes. Through images both unsettling and expansive, and music elegant and elegiac, his poems mimic the rhythms of all our precisely-described lives. This is a collection you’ll want to take along on your journeys, for it functions as a kind of metaphysical road atlas, a tour guide of heart and mind. -- Michael Parker, author of The Watery Part of the World
