Product Description

In this, his major book of poems, poet David Kresh has explored a dangerous world. Using language that is never as simple as it seems, he has mapped the coordinates of a reality that seems to lie slightly beyond our own; at once both magical and familiar, and filled with unexpected moments of stark, heartbreaking beauty. David Kresh served as a reference librarian at the Library of Congress for nearly 40 years. He died in 2006.

Grace Cavalieri Author of What I Would Do For Love
