A luminous new collection by the winner of the 1998 National Book Award for Poetry. Of these outstanding new poems, Gerald Stern "Light vs. darkness has always been one of my themes, but now more than ever. Not only is this the root—and metaphor—for all the major religions, but the almost biological frame of reference for humans. With me, it is overwhelming, personal."
