N2  - "The author's first collection of poetry musters scenes from antiquity, a life in Japan, and a preoccupation with flright in its varied forms. Islands are stepping stones for below; plains are bused, cycled, hiked across. At any moment a colossus might appear. A child's efforts to describe her own terrain keep company with poems tracing a mother's decline. Throughout these beautifully voiced and distilled pages, loud and faint thuds can be detected"--Publisher information
