Against the Meanwhile (Wesleyan Poetry)

by Mark Irwin

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

'The three long elegies that make up Mark Irwin's new book, Against the Meanwhile, are major clusterings of lyric outcry. Irwin reminds us that the rising water is supported by a falling water. The field of epiphany, here, is unlikely, pure, but lawful of a physical world. It is a splendid book.' - Norman Dubie

Synopsis:

Three elegies exploring the nature of remembered time and space.
