"An excavation of interior geography, of the faults and rift zones of its author’s psyche, his history and memory…In this magnificent and nuanced work, [Gander] wrestles with the most complicated and contradictory of human experiences: the implacable inevitability of our evanescence, the fallacy of memory, and the failure of time to redeem us, to offer consolation of any kind."—David Ulin, ALTA
In a starred review, Publishers Weekly says: “The expansive and arresting latest from Pulitzer winner Gander comprises…a book-length single poem that spans time, space, and narrative perspective against stark and arresting desert environments.”
