Aprašymas

The themes in Saints of Sleeping and Waking are heavy-love, death, faith, doubt-but the poems themselves are not subsumed by this heaviness because hope resides at the center and the circumference of the collection-sometimes only in the shape of a seed and sometimes with the distant blare of a neon sign in the night. Other preoccupations that permeate the collection: a deep joy in the natural world, the intellectual life, art, love, and faith. Beginning in the particular, the specific, the singular, the poems open outward toward shared human experience, transcending the merely confessional by transforming the personal into something communal. These poems are, in a way, ecstatic, and the emotions are real, as are the people and places that populate the poetry.
