The Future of an Illusion

The Future of an Illusion is a gorgeous collection, delving into the essentials of life and death in a voice that is both intimate and ethereal. The refrains woven into the poems are subtly haunting. The depth of feeling swells into striking philosophical observations. Entwining strands of narrative, lyric, and meditation, The Future of an Illusion feels completely at home in its own idiom, moving not in opposition to poetic conventions, but on another plane.
