Poetry. "The poems shimmering in this volume represent an intense and vertiginous new beginning of the sonnet, erupting from the site of 'end words.' Tim Wood's re-embarkations are thrilling. I hesitate to impose metaphors on a work of art that stands on its own terms, but something related to time travel might turn attention in the right direction.

These poems are wild and beautiful. They are something new in sonnetry!"—Lyn Hejinian.
