The style also accentuates the intuitive and impulsive aspects of human nature, which can take instantaneous measure of the world and reveal facets of experience and ourselves we tend to hide. Though my own work originates more in memory than in the moment, no matter the language of creation or approximation, or differences of belief, or the gulf across years, poetry has one mission: to speak to and through the heart."

To rescue Kimiko, the playwright Daniel Singer enlists a well-known film director and a high-spirited character actress to serve as go-betweens.
