Very clean; pages bright; binding tight. 84 pages; Notes. Language: English. From publisher: 'Placed in the context of 20th-century moral disaster--war, genocide, the Holocaust, the atomic bomb--Forch's third collection of poems is a mediation on memory, specifically on how memory survives the unimaginable. The poems reflect the effects of such experience: the lines, and often the images within them, are fragmented, discordant. But read together, these lines become a haunting mosaic of grief, evoking the necessary accommodations human beings make to survive what is unsurvivable.'
