The latest collection from prize-winning poet, Mark Roper. Throughout, Roper's keynote alertness and subtley of language frame and mirror his subject matter with consummate skill, allowing the reader to see, hear and sense the vital presences far beyond the margins of the page. The second half of the collection addresses a serious accident in the mountains, and its long aftermath - for which the poet's startling attention to detail and commitment to his art and craft provides both cure and consolation.
