      abstract = {"Drawing from his experience as a translator, Forrest  Gander includes in the first, powerfully elegiac section a  version of a poem by the Spanish mystical poet St. John of  the Cross. He continues with a long multilingual poem  examining the syncretic geological and cultural history of  the U.S. border with Mexico. The poems of the third  section--a moving transcription of Gander's efforts to  address his mother dying of Alzheimer's--rise from the page  like hymns, transforming slowly from reverence to  revelation. Gander has been called one of our most formally  restless poets, and these new poems express a  characteristically tensile energy and, as one critic noted,  'the most eclectic diction since Hart Crane'" --},
