Shortlisted for the 2013 WFNS Atlantic Poetry Prize.

"Named after the surface condition in which no object casts a shadow, the horizon cannot be seen, and only dark objects are discernible, this collection of poems explores how accidental voyeurism can force reconsideration and reconciliation. The featured pieces delve into the concept of daily life's heavy weather, illustrating how it establishes measure and how the predatory nature of the accidental conjures unexpected things. This sixth compilation, a decade in the making, is at once taut, tender, and terrifying, shattering convention in the collision of order and rage, formlessness and hard-won serenity"--Provided by publisher.
