In this brilliant work that transcends genre—lyric essay, prose poem, philosophical fiction—Fanny Howe pursues her realization that keen metaphysical inquiry is radically essential to everyday life.
“With extraordinary self-scrutiny and complexity—and unmatchable musical poise and beauty—Fanny Howe examines our relationship with ‘other’ worlds, purgatories of various kinds: genetic, historical, theological.”—Rae Armantrout
