Centering on the themes of music, travel, and dance, this collection of poems explores the concepts of dreams, ghosts, myth, and magic. Ranging in subject from an Afro-Cuban initiation ritual to the folklore of English yew trees and in place from a haunted library to a shrine of Our Lady in Mexico, this anthology deploys an original viewpoint as well as a wide range of both traditional and experimental skills. Passionate, sensual, and full of imagination, this compendium reveals a new world that is both intriguingly strange and eerily familiar.
